The former Treasury Head at the Chase Manhattan Bank, Asad Rizvi said:

Per expectations, July Remittances surged to $2.7bn that will help to attain $30bn+ in FY22 … While, yesterday, some stability was seen in the interbank market … late $ [dollar] buying pushed it higher.

However, the Pakistani Rupee’s performance against the other major currencies was kind of mixed. As you can see above, local buck performance was almost equally positive and negative against some currencies.

It gained 14 paisas against the Euro, 61 paisas against the Pound Sterling (GBP), and 1 paisa against the Australian Dollar (AUD).
