PKR loses over one rupee in early trade

May 09, 2022 (MLN): Pakistani rupee (PKR) has once again come under a strong spell of depreciation as the currency lost 1.27 rupees during early trade.
The dollar was quoted at 187.84/ 187.94 (10:06 PST) when compared to the previous close of 186.63.
Bleak macros along with delay in the IMF tranche have dragged PKR towards a bleak phase.
According to Asad Rizvi, the former Treasury Head at Chase Manhattan, “Widening of trade deficit to $39.26bn in 10MFY22 is caused by record-high imports that have surged to $65.49bn versus $44.73bn is not good news because oil prices are not easing.”
While drying up of remittances this week could delay PKR recovery, he added.
