KARACHI: A roadshow was organised by Standard Chartered Bank for non-resident Pakistanis based in the UAE with the support of State Bank of Pakistan.

SBP’s acting Governor Dr Murtaza Syed, who was chief guest on the occasion, expressed the confidence that despite the challenges faced by Pakistan on the economic front things would stabilise in coming months as prudent steps were being taken to tackle these issues.

Speakers said the event offered a unique opportunity to the diaspora to gain insights into the growth potential of Pakistan and various opportunities available to them.
