Karachi, August 7, 2025 – The UK Pound Sterling (GBP) continued to show strength against the Pakistani Rupee (PKR) in the open currency market.
As of 9:00 AM Pakistan Standard Time (PST), the buying rate for one UK Pound was recorded at Rs 377.48, while the selling rate stood at Rs 379.50.
These exchange rates are based on open market dynamics and are subject to fluctuations throughout the day, depending on foreign currency supply, demand, and international market trends. The buying rate represents the amount a bank or exchange company offers to pay when purchasing Pounds from customers, while the selling rate reflects the price at which the same institutions sell Pounds.
The Pound to PKR parity is heavily influenced by several factors, including changes in global financial markets, trade volumes, investor sentiment, and political developments in the United Kingdom. Seasonal travel trends, remittances, and business-related transactions also impact the value of the Pound in local markets.
Due to strong economic and migration links between Pakistan and the UK, the Pound remains one of the most frequently traded foreign currencies in the country. Exchange companies regularly update their rates to reflect real-time market conditions.
Individuals and businesses are advised to verify the latest Pound exchange rates before making transactions to ensure accuracy and best value.
