The Pakistani Rupee (PKR) continued its remarkable winning streak on Tuesday, closing stronger against the US Dollar (USD) for the 29th consecutive day. The local currency appreciated by 0.01% day-on-day, settling at Rs280.87 in the interbank market.
According to financial analysts, the rupee’s sustained recovery reflects improved market confidence, consistent inflows from remittances, and tighter foreign exchange controls. On a fiscal year-to-date (FYTD) basis, the PKR has appreciated by 1.09% against the dollar.
The rupee also gained ground against other major currencies during today’s session, showing broad market strength.
“Stable reserves and a narrowing trade deficit have supported PKR’s steady performance,” a market observer noted.
