Islamabad (Commerce Desk): As a result of SIFC reforms and policy continuity, Pakistan’s foreign exchange reserves have reached their highest level in four years.
According to Khurram Shehzad, the country’s total foreign exchange reserves have climbed to $21.6 billion, marking a record high over the past four years. Of this, State Bank of Pakistan holds $16.3 billion, while commercial banks hold $5.3 billion.
Khurram Shehzad noted that the State Bank’s share now accounts for 76% of the total, reflecting increased financial sovereignty and policy control. He added that this growth strengthens the country’s capacity for immediate response during crises and reinforces financial stability, with the rising reserves of the State Bank serving as a testament to Pakistan’s strong financial reserves and economic stability.
