The Federation of Bangladesh Chambers of Commerce and Industries (FBCCI) has launched a centre to resolve business-related disputes out of court.
Former FBCCI President Shafiul Islam Mohiuddin on Wednesday virtually inaugurated the FBCCI Alternative Dispute Resolution Center and Institute, said a press release.
Sheikh Fazle Fahim, president of FBCCI, Mohammad Muntakim Ashraf, its senior vice-president, and Mohammad Mahfuzul Haque, chief executive officer, were present, among others, in the event.
