How concentrated Bangladesh's trade is across its top partner countries, computed from currently-tracked trade flows (not the historical 1997–2015 World Bank dataset). Measures country-to-country concentration only — Bangladesh's trade_flows records don't carry product-level detail to break this down further.

Every one of Bangladesh's 182 real trading partners reported for 2018 under UN Comtrade (BD) — a complete, deduplicated partner breakdown for this exact country/source/period combination, not a global top-N slice.
Firm-level entry/exit/survival dynamics for Bangladesh's exporting firms, whole economy (not broken down by product) so every figure below is a genuine national rate — never an average across incompatible product categories. See /exporter-dynamics to compare Bangladesh against all 68 covered countries.
| Metric | Latest value | Year | Trend (2005–2014) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Number of exporting firms | 7,937 | 2014 | |
| Incumbent exporting firms | 6,018 | 2014 | |
| New entrant exporting firms | 1,919 | 2014 | |
| Exiting exporting firms | 1,917 | 2014 | |
| Firm entry rate | 24.2% | 2014 | |
| Firm exit rate | 24.2% | 2014 | |
| Exporter concentration (EDD HHI, 0–1 scale) | 0.001 | 2014 | |
| Product categories exported (distinct HS4 codes) | 770 | 2014 | |
| Avg. export value per exporting firm | $3.8M | 2014 | |
| Median export value per exporting firm | $327.9K | 2014 | |
| Avg. destination countries per exporting firm | 4.8 | 2015 | |
| Median destination countries per exporting firm | 2.0 | 2015 |
The 2014 mean is 12x the median — a small number of large exporting firms account for most of the export value; the typical firm exports far less than the average figure suggests.
