The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) said Pak rupee was in line with the economic fundamentals. Commenting on the rupee's fluctuations, some experts said that fall in the regional currencies and giving a boost to the local exports might be solid factors behind that move. After the fresh decline in the rupee value, the difference between the open and interbank market rates widened, they said. Besides, money expert Malik Bostan said people, who were buying dollars in expectations of better investment, refrained from it, because the national currency was likely to move with slight fall versus the dollar.
