The State Bank of Pakistan's (SBP) foreign exchange reserves rose by $33 million to $17.26 billion for the week ending July 17, 2026. This increase contributed to the country's total liquid foreign reserves reaching $22.67 billion, with commercial banks holding $5.41 billion. The slight uptick in SBP's reserves offers a minor positive signal for Pakistan's external account stability, which could indirectly support the PKR against the USD, potentially influencing local gold prices.
