On the occasion of Eid-ul-Azha, the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has made special arrangements to facilitate general public for their banking-related needs. These measures are aimed at providing hassle-free services to masses during Eid holidays.
Being cognisant of the needs of the general public, the SBP has advised that 'all' branches of commercial banks and Microfinance Banks (MFBs) will remain open on Saturday, 10th September, 2016 from 9am to 5:30pm for provision of banking services to masses.
Further, to ensure uninterrupted availability of ATM services during Eid holidays, the SBP has also advised all banks/MFBs to take necessary measures for facilitation of general public. Moreover, the SBP has already instructed all banks/MFBs to make special arrangements by installing kiosks, ATMs and mobile ATMs at places of business such as cattle markets and bazaars, etc, for the facilitation of buyers and sellers in co-ordination with each other. It has also been advised that cash needs should be assessed through continuous monitoring of ATMs to ensure timely replenishment of cash in ATMs. The SBP has always been endeavouring for smooth provisioning of banking services to public at large.
