Analysts Reactions

Financial analysts note that while the central bank’s guidelines exist, “real growth hinges on banks packaging user-friendly products”,—and MCB’s zero-interest plan is a leading example. Independent investigative journalism data shows renewable-energy financing under SBP also covers solar PV and wind, but dedicated EV schemes have lagged.

MCB’s efforts encourage urban commuters to switch from fossil-fuel bikes, supporting national targets to cut urban air pollution and CO₂ emissions, under SBP’s guidelines (Climate-Resilient Strategy for 2023–28).

This initiative bolsters Pakistan’s green-mobility push, fitting into the State Bank of Pakistan’s broader renewable-energy financing framework, which had disbursed ₨ 94.7 billion by June 2024. This disbursement was allotted for more than 4000 projects; however, uptake for electric two-wheelers remains voluntary, and banks can lend at up to 6% p.a. markup.
