وزیراعظم شہباز نے SMEs کے لیے برآمدی فنانسنگ کی شرائط نرم کر دیں

Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has directed the removal of the 80% export revenue requirement for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) to qualify for long-term financing, enhancing their access to credit and supporting export expansion. The government has allocated Rs300 billion for the Export Finance Scheme and Rs350 billion for the Long-Term Financing Facility this year, with the State Bank of Pakistan receiving over 10,000 loan applications. This move is expected to strengthen Pakistan's export base and improve the balance of payments over time. While a positive step for economic stability, its immediate impact on gold or USD/PKR rates is likely to be gradual rather than sharp.
