Foundation Research| A Fauji Foundation Group Company Equities REP-095 PAKISTAN Pakistan Strategy KSE-100 posted highest return in 7 years Structural Reforms to set the market tone for FY22 Rising commodity prices and slowdown in growth of remittances as travelling opens up amid rising foreign liabilities would put pressure on PKR and proves to be inflationary in nature, in our view. This along with slow progress on structural reforms would make it difficult for government to continue with its accommodative policies and may force it to introduce further revenue measures and cut development expenditure to bring fiscal discipline. However, in order to comply with the IMF program, structural reforms are to be implemented in true spirit, which would helped the heavy weight sectors i.e Banks, Number of COVID cases drop sharply E&Ps and Fertilizer to Outperform. Subsequently, KSE-100 would continue its rally built on 6,000 strong fiscal and monetary support amid easing COVID cases, in our view. 5,000 Market Depth at high of 13 years 4,000 On the back of proactive response of both government and central bank amid declining cases of COVID-19, KSE-100 closes ~37.6% (46% in US$ terms) up in FY21 against muted 3,000 return of last year. Notably, during the fiscal year Rupee appreciated by 6.6%. The current 2,000 fiscal year started by decline in policy rate to 7% and ended with the growth prone budget for FY22 has significantly improved market depth. Average Daily Turnover (ADTO) has 1,000 notably improved by ~164% YoY to ~Rs19.0bn, at a high of 13 along with improvement in 0 volumes by ~168% YoY to ~524mn shares in FY21. However, improved volumes came with a significant drop in settlement to ~53.2% in FY21, down 689bps YoY.

    7 Capital Market 7.1 Introduction Pakistan’s capital market showed a mixed trend during FY01 (see Table7.1). The benchmark KSE- 100 index shed 10.1 percent since the beginning of FY01 and closed the year at 1366.4. This downturn can be attributed to a host of factors including the lack of concrete progress on privatization, uncertain investor confidence, the continuous depreciation of the Rupee and friction between SECP and the bourses. While equity market remained bearish, the corporate bond market showed encouraging movements. The growth in this market was encouraging, as ten new TFCs issues were floated during FY01 alone, compared to ten in the last five fiscal years. 7.2 Stock Market Performance The Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE) maintained Table 7.1: Key Indicators of Capital Market its dominance in the country (see Table 7.1).

The journey the nation has traversed during the last six decades has been both of achievement and difficulties. Each decade has had its challenges, success and disappointments. Various economic policies and planning processes have been pursued, giving a direction/determining the course of the economy. These policy changes have had far reaching economic consequences. Some have benefitted the economy and supported in the growth of the sub-sectors, while others have had unfavourable consequences for the different segments of the economy/population. The initial years were a period of adjustment for the new nation, with the government shouldering the task of settling the people and building an economic base. Considerable economic growth and development took place in the decade of the 60s, with significant increases in industrial and agricultural production and in the different sectors of the economy. This was despite many constraints and hurdles. It was a period when the public sector played a significant role of a facilitator and director, encouraging the private sector to come forward.

Abu Talib and Mohd Noor Azli Ali Khan Department of Management and Human Resource Development, Universiti Teknologi Malaysia, Skudai, Johar Bahru, Malaysia Abstract: In recent economic recession, portfolio theory progressively motivated banks to strategically concentrate on shareholders' investment returns. The analysis of the determinants of bank performance and their association with investment returns has become increasingly important. In presence of alternative investment opportunities of competitive market returns, bank stock performance is explored under depressed investment environment. For this research study, a sample of 16 banks listed at Karachi Stock Exchange was extracted on random basis. To calculate monthly stock returns, daily stock prices were used for a period of 2003-2010. Capital Asset Pricing Model (CAPM) was used to compute the expected bank stock returns. Results of performance metrics demonstrated insignificant correlation in movements of bank stock returns. Findings of this study suggested that in reflection of better market returns, banks tend to outperform for improvement of their shareholders' investment returns and value maximization. Key words: Stock returns Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE) CAPM Systematic Risk Market Returns INTRODUCTION value (NPV). Many stock exchanges around the world compute indices for specific sectors like banks and Karachi Stock Exchange (KSE) was established on financial institutions which are economic engines owing 18th September, 1947 just after independence of Pakistan to their mediator function between depository funds and with an initial capital of PKR 37 million.
