Karachi, October 25, 2025 – The latest exchange rate of the UK Pound Sterling (GBP) to Pakistani Rupee (PKR) has been updated for Saturday, offering insights into the current open market trends in Pakistan’s foreign exchange sector.
As of 9:00 AM Pakistan Standard Time (PST), the buying rate of one British Pound stood at Rs375.08, while the selling rate was recorded at Rs379.02. These figures reflect the early market movement and can fluctuate throughout the day, depending on foreign currency demand, market liquidity, and global economic indicators.
The buying rate refers to the price at which banks or exchange companies purchase Pounds from customers, whereas the selling rate denotes the rate at which they sell Pounds to the public. The small difference between the two represents the exchange spread, which covers administrative costs and market risks faced by financial institutions.
The GBP to PKR exchange rate is influenced by several factors including monetary policy decisions of the Bank of England, UK economic performance, international trade volumes, and Pakistan’s domestic economic stability. Additionally, remittance inflows, import payments, and global inflation trends can also play a crucial role in determining the daily parity between the Pound and Rupee.
It’s worth noting that the open market rate often differs slightly from the interbank rate announced by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP). Traders, travelers, and businesses are advised to check for the latest updates before making currency exchange transactions.
