State Bank of Pakistan, Governor, Yaseen Anwar has said they can easily overcome main challenges by following the guidance of our founding fathers.
It is now our duty to transform this country into a truly developed state as envisioned by our Quaid-eAzam, he said.
He was speaking at the national flag hoisting ceremony held at SBP, Karachi on Tuesday.
The Governor SBP paid glowing tribute to Quaid-e-Azam Muhammad Ali Jinnah under whose inspiring leadership, statesmanship, wisdom and vision, the first ideological state of the world came into being on August 14, 1947.
He said the SBP has been working to increase the welfare of all communities in line with the Quaid’s vision for Pakistan and added that financial inclusion is a core component of SBP’s financial sector development strategy.
It envisages transforming the financial market into an equitable system with efficient market based financial services to the otherwise excluded poor and marginalized population including women and young people, Anwar added.
The SBP Governor said the State Bank will keep on working with all stakeholders to ensure that the financial system is well positioned to meet the growing needs of the economy and for achieving “our shared goals of economic growth and prosperity.” Anwar said the State Bank has been striving to fulfill the twin objectives of monetary policy i.e. maximizing production/employment while ensuring price stability.
