  • Description: This study aims to find out the Economic condition of the vulnerable population of Bangladesh in the COVID-19 situation. This study uses the primary data of 203 respondents who were collected from all around Bangladesh using convenience and purposive sampling. In this study, a comparison of expected income in the COVID-19 situation is made with the pre-COVID-19 situation using Welch two-sample t-test, and the possible impact on Expenditure and Savings was discovered using OLS estimation. Descriptive analysis is also included considering the key economic variable of the respondents. This study finds a significant drop in income due to COVID-19 and infers that it will cause both drop-in expenditure and monthly savings, and gives an overall idea of the situation of vulnerable people in the COVID-19 situation. This study can help the stakeholders to understand the situation of the vulnerable population of Bangladesh due to COVID-19
