Karachi: The open market rate for the US dollar is being reported at PKR 282.65 (buying) and PKR 282.85 (selling).

Remittances from overseas workers, a vital source of foreign exchange for Pakistan, are also being closely watched — any sustained move in the dollar could affect household spending and the central bank’s foreign reserves strategy.
