The Pakistani Rupee (PKR) continues to maintain its rally against the US Dollar (USD) in the international currency market, staying below the Rs. 160 exchange rate and posting gradual improvements every day.

The PKR opened the week with mixed results against most major currencies but maintained the exchange rate against the USD under Rs. 160. Tuesday brought gains for the PKR against the USD, the UAE Dirham (AED), and the Saudi Arabian Riyal (SAR). However, it deteriorated against most other currencies as Wednesday repeated Tuesday’s trend. Thursday, however, saw PKR post blanket gains against all major currencies in the interbank market.
