KARACHI, June 23: The State Bank has suspended for 30 days the licence of Glaxy International Exchange Company for violating the rules of business, SBP spokesman Syed Wasimuddin told Dawn.
He said the company was found to have violated the rule that required all exchange companies to display the correct exchange rates at their business places, meaning that it was selling dollars and other foreign currencies at higher rates than displayed.
