The US Dollar is trading in Pakistan’s currency market as both the open market and interbank channels are moving closely together, reflecting ongoing pressure on foreign payments and import demand.
In the open market, the USD is being recorded at a buying rate of Rs. 279.05 and a selling rate of Rs. 279.70, while in the interbank market it is being noted at a buying rate of Rs. 278.50 and a selling rate of Rs. 279.00.
The movement in the dollar is directly influencing Pakistan’s import costs, especially energy and industrial raw materials, while export settlements are also being adjusted in line with the exchange trend. The currency alignment between both markets is keeping overall forex activity steady but sensitive to trade flows.
