June 06, 2024 (MLN): The foreign exchange reserves held by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) increased by $15.8 million or 0.17% WoW to $9.11 billion during the week ended on May 31, 2024, data released by SBP showed on Thursday.

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

On the other hand, the country's total reserves decreased by $99.8m or 0.70% WoW to $14.22bn.

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%.

This significant boost comes after the country secured the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) Stand-By Arrangement (SBA) of about $3bn by end-June last year, which also helped unlock multilateral and bilateral funding.

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