Rupee gains 20 paisas on foreign inflows

KARACHI: Pak Rupee gained 20 paisas against US dollar in open market on Saturday on reports of foreign inflows from friendly countries.

The buying and selling of dollar was recorded at Rs138.30/Rs138.80 from previous day’s closing of Rs138.50/Rs139.00 in cash free market.

Currency experts said that the signing of financing between State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) and Abu Dhabi Fund for Development (ADFD) for deposit of $2 billion helped the local currency to gain.

They further said that the local currency would strengthen during the next week owing to foreign inflows.
