New TAG-Osiris alliance aims to guide investors through Bangladesh’s dynamic market

The Asia Group (TAG) has launched its Bangladesh practice through a strategic partnership with The Osiris Group, a leading private equity, advisory, and consulting firm with extensive local roots.

An Asia Group media statement on Tuesday said, the collaboration combines TAG’s expertise across the Asia-Pacific with Osiris’ on-the-ground team and network, delivering end-to-end solutions for clients investing in and operating throughout Bangladesh.

The new practice will be led by Nisha Biswal, TAG’s lead partner for South Asia, who brings decades of regional experience, having held senior US government positions and founded the US-Bangladesh Business Council.

From Osiris, leadership comes from Ambassador Farooq Sobhan, chairman of Osiris and a highly-respected voice on Bangladesh’s economic and foreign policy, and Jason Bajaj, managing partner and co-founder of Osiris, who has over three decades of global investment and operating experience across the Indo-Pacific, it added.

“Bangladesh offers a compelling growth story with a large, youthful workforce, a globally competitive manufacturing base, and a fast-growing domestic market,” Biswal was quoted as saying.

“At the same time, companies need sophisticated advice to navigate evolving macroeconomic conditions, regulatory and political change, infrastructure needs, and supply chain realignments.

“The TAG-Osiris partnership is built to meet that full spectrum of needs from GeoCommercial strategy to stakeholder engagement and on-the-ground delivery,” Biswal said.

“Osiris has long partnered with global operators and leading local enterprises operating in Bangladesh, and this partnership is a force multiplier for foreign direct investment and technology innovation,” said Bajaj.

Ambassador Sobhan added, “Our partnership with TAG aligns international ambition with local insight -- bringing people, policy, and local execution to deliver results.”

TAG’s Bangladesh practice will advise clients on market entry and growth through commercial strategy, geopolitical risk analysis, and regulatory road-mapping, alongside government engagement on advocacy, policy analysis, and narrative positioning.

“Expanding our footprint in Bangladesh reflects TAG’s commitment to helping clients win across South Asia’s most consequential markets. With Nisha at the helm and Osiris as our in-market partner, we are bringing an unmatched combination of strategic insight and local execution,” said Rexon Ryu, president of The Asia Group.

TAG’s Dhaka office joins a global network that includes headquarters in Washington, DC, and offices in Bangkok, Canberra, Hanoi, Hong Kong, Mumbai, New Delhi, Seoul, Shanghai, Singapore, Taipei, and Tokyo.
