August 20, 2020: Continuing with its commitment to support the industry amid COVID-19 pandemic, SBP has further facilitated the exporters and importers by allowing extension up to 180 days in settlement of their export and import loans under FE-25 Scheme.

Banks can now allow extension up to 180 days to exporters in settlement of their FE-25 loans in case they are facing delay in realization of export proceeds due to COVID-19. Moreover, banks can also allow settlement of FE-25 loans to exporters through substitute contract during the extended period of 180 days where the original export contract has been cancelled due to COVID-19. Likewise, SBP has also allowed the bank to extend the maturity of FE-25 import loans by 180 days. This facilitation has been provided to exporter and importers for their foreign currency loans maturing up to September 30, 2020. Details

State Bank reiterates its unflinching resolve to continue working with all stakeholders to provide all needed facilitation in these uncertain times in the larger interest of people of Pakistan.
