Why the Riyal Rate Matters in Pakistan
-
Remittances: Pakistan received over $736 million from Saudi Arabia in August 2025 alone, according to the State Bank of Pakistan. A strong Riyal directly increases the value of these remittances for families back home.
-
Economic Impact: Remittances are a major source of foreign reserves, helping Pakistan stabilize its economy.
-
Daily Transactions: Families receiving funds regularly track the SAR to PKR rate to maximize value.

Economic stability and import/export needs.
-
Central bank policies and remittance inflows.
-
Global oil prices (since Saudi Arabia is a major oil exporter).
