October 16, 2020: Prime Minister Imran Khan has said that around 21,000 non-resident Pakistanis opened Roshan Digital Account remotely and sent 24 million dollars with the number still growing.

In a tweet, the Prime Minister expressed appreciation for Roshan Digital Account initiative of State Bank of Pakistan (SBP).

He said the number of accounts and amounts are growing every day.

Roshan Digital Account is an opportunity for overseas Pakistanis allowing them to remotely open an account in Pakistan through an entirely digital and online process without any need to visit a bank branch.
