During a conversation with Standard Chartered Bank Chairman Jose Vinals, the prime minister said a sound capital base, remarkable growth in assets and profitability and compliance with international standards has poised Pakistan’s banking sector in a very competitive position in the region for investors.
“The country’s banking sector has shown impressive performance and proved its resilience with stable outlook,” he said. “Due to growth focused policies, Pakistan has been upgraded to the list of emerging markets.”
Nawaz said regulatory and supervisory framework of the country was very progressive and provided a supportive environment to the international investors.
