The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has decided to keep the policy rate unchanged at 11% in its latest Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting on June 16, 2025.
This decision reflects the central bank’s strategy to balance inflation control with economic growth, as policymakers assess the impact of previous rate cuts and ongoing global financial pressures.
The SBP noted that while inflation trends remain in line with expectations, external challenges such as widening trade deficits and volatile commodity prices continue to pose risks. By keeping the interest rate steady, the bank aims to support macroeconomic stability, ensuring financial markets remain resilient while addressing concerns over long-term growth prospects.
