BO Account stands for Beneficiary Owners Account. If you want to start investing and stock trading in the stock market in Bangladesh then you need to open a Beneficiary Owners account.

A primary share is where brand new shares (or bonds) are created and offered to the public (for example, through an Initial Public Offering or IPO, mainly through lottery). The secondary market is where, after IPO, issued shares (or bonds) are traded, i.e., the Stock Exchange (through regular buying and selling).

There is only one type of BO account. And you can use any BO account for both applying for IPO (primary) and also Buy & Sell shares (secondary). All BO accounts have the same functions.

An IPO, or initial public offering, is the process by which a privately held company begins selling stock to outside investors, thus becoming a public company. From that point on, the company can raise the capital it needs by selling shares, but it must also comply with a strict set of reporting guidelines, as established by the Bangladesh Securities and Exchange Commission (BSEC). An IPO is a subscription process where you simply apply for an IPO through Anwer Khan Modern Securities Ltd. Based on the overall demand for the IPO you will receive IPO shares. The service charge for applying for an IPO is only Tk. 10 total.
