Bangladesh brought its banknote printing fully in-house when the Security Printing Corporation opened in Gazipur in 1988, ending a long reliance on foreign security printers — primarily the British American Banknote Company and later Harrison & Sons — that dated to the country's earliest post-independence issues. The 100 Taka P#57 series was produced entirely domestically throughout its run, a point of some national significance given how many developing-nation central banks still contract abroad for high-denomination notes.
Security features on this series are modest by contemporary standards: a basic windowed thread and watermark, without the holograms or color-shifting inks found on comparably valued notes elsewhere in South Asia.
