Bangladesh remains an attractive market, but predictable regulation and sustainable costs will shape future telecom investment, Axiata chief executive Nik Rizal Kamil said in an interview published by BSS on 3 October 2026.
He called for spectrum pricing that leaves operators room to expand networks. Axiata is the parent group of Robi and infrastructure business Edotco. His comments describe an investor’s assessment, rather than a new investment commitment.
