Pakistan’s commercial banks suffered more than rupees. During the first two months of the financial year 2025-26, 1 trillion reserves raise fresh concerns as consumer alternative investment options.
The data released by the State Bank of Pakistan revealed the withdrawal of rupee. In July and August, 1.035 trillion, reduced total reserves to Rs. 35.49 trillion on June 30, 2025.
Banks, at the end of FY 25, banks a few weeks after publishing their highest level levels.
Analysts linked the flow to two important factors: standing in interest rates and new tax enforcement measures. The central bank has reduced its policy rate by 11 % compared to last year’s peak or 22 %, which is deposited with less profit. Many people are transferring funds to stock markets, gold and other high yield assets.
At the same time, the government has accelerated efforts to expand tax owners. The Federal Board of Revenue has warned about tough measures, including the potential account for non -filers, to submit a promotion to revise the mass balance in banks.
