The Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission issued the Margin (Repeal) Rules, 2025 to repeal the Margin Rules, 1999 under section 33 of the Securities and Exchange Ordinance, 1969. The repeal takes effect on the effective date of the Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (Margin) Rules, 2025. Transitional provisions preserve continuity for measures taken under the 1999 rules by treating them as having been done under the 2025 margin rules. However, any suit, prosecution, or other legal proceeding that was ongoing before the 2025 margin rules become effective will be executed or settled under the Margin Rules, 1999, which will be treated as remaining in force for those proceedings.
