KARACHI: The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has observed a reduction of 65% in the volume of the current account deficit in January 2021.
According to the released stats, the current value of the current account deficit has been recorded at $229mn against the value of $652mn recorded in December 2020.
The decrease in the current account deficit is linked to the increasing influx of remittances, the rising activity of exports, and the reduction in imports.
