Pakistan’s commercial banks lost more than Rs. 1 trillion in deposits during the first two months of fiscal year 2025-26, raising fresh concerns as customers seek alternative investment options.
Data released by the State Bank of Pakistan showed withdrawals of Rs. 1.035 trillion in July and August, pulling total deposits down to Rs. 34.46 trillion at the end of August from a record Rs. 35.49 trillion on June 30, 2025.
