The central bank did not specify a reason for the increase.

The reserves held by commercial banks fell by $115.6m or 2.21% WoW to $5.11bn.
In the current fiscal year, SBP-held reserves have increased by $4.64bn or 103.95%.

Meanwhile, the current calendar year has seen an increase of $888.3m or 10.8%.
