A bank may be scheduled or non-scheduled bank. ‘Scheduled bank’ has been defined by the Bangladesh bank order-1972.
According to Bangladesh bank order-1972 article (1), A scheduled bank means a bank for the time being included in the list of banks maintained by the central bank under sub-clause (a) of clause (2) of article 32. Any bank not included in this list is a non-scheduled bank. For example, as of today, Grameen bank is not a scheduled bank. All the commercial banks in Bangladesh are, however, scheduled banks. Now the total number of scheduled banks is 51.
