It is my pleasant duty and distinct privilege to welcome you all to the 70th anniversary of the establishment of State Bank of Pakistan.

I need to hardly dilate on the important role the State Bank will have to play in regulating the economic life of our country. The monetary policy of the bank will have a direct bearing on our trade and commerce, both inside Pakistan as well as with the outside world and it is only to be desired that our policy should encourage maximum production and free flow of trade.” Page 1 of 4 The SBP as an institution has tried to live up to the expectations of the Quaid.

There are different names under consideration for the slot of chairman FBR including Tariq Pasha, Mujtaba Memon, Jehanzeb Khan, Nausheen Javed and Javed Ghani. With the latest development, Tariq Pasha is considered among the top contenders of this top position within the ranks of FBR. Pasha is going to reach the age of superannuation very soon, so if the government decides his name, he might be given a contract for three years period.

    The Globalization Bulletin Pakistan Economy January 2019 NEWS COVERAGE PERIOD FROM JAN 21st TO JAN 27th 2019 FOURTH MEMBER OF PM’S ECONOMIC ADVISORY COMMISSION RESIGNS By Irshad Ansari Published: January 26, 2019 ISLAMABAD: Another prominent member of the PTI government’s Economic Advisory Commission (EAC) has stepped down citing ‘personal reasons’, The Express Tribune has learnt. Former chief economist of Pakistan Sakib Sherani is the fourth member of the 18-member EAC to have resigned since its establishment in September 2018. The EAC was set up by Prime Minister Imran Khan to seek expert advice on economic and financial policies of the government. The commission comprised seven members from the government and 11 from the private sector. Officials at the finance ministry have sought to downplay Sherani’s resignation, saying that he had said in the first meeting of EAC that it wouldn’t be possible for him to continue as member for too long because he was already working as a consultant. According to sources, Sherani has informed the prime minister and Finance Minister Asad Umar about his resignation. Sherani is the fourth member of the EAC to have resigned within four months and 25 days of the formation of the premier commission. Finance Ministry officials claim that Sherani has resigned due to personal reasons. However, sources say that is not the case. Sources say that Sherani has stepped down in protest against the government move to bypass the EAC in the preparation of the Finance Supplementary (Second Amendment) Bill, 2019, and five-year macroeconomic framework and midterm budgetary framework.
