Our Story

Since 2004, BRAC Saajan has been more than a money transfer company – we’ve been a lifeline connecting families, a catalyst for prosperity, and a trusted bridge between the UK and Bangladesh. As part of the BRAC family, the world’s largest NGO, and a subsidiary of BRAC Bank, Bangladesh’s largest private commercial bank, we carry forward a 50-year legacy of empowering communities and advancing financial inclusion.

BRAC Saajan was established in the UK with a singular vision: to provide the Bangladeshi diaspora with a reliable, affordable way to support their families back home. We understood that behind every transaction was a story – parents funding their children’s education, families building homes, communities growing stronger.

Built on Trust

Over two decades, we’ve:

  • Processed over £3 billion in remittances
  • Built a network of 500+ trusted agents across the UK
  • Established 20+ direct bank partnerships in Bangladesh
  • Created access to 300,000+ payout locations
  • Served over 1 million families
 

What started as a service for the UK Bangladeshi community has evolved into the most comprehensive payout infrastructure for Bangladesh globally, while expanding to serve multiple migrant communities across 13 corridors.
