Karachi: The State Bank of Pakistan has announced a new floor limit for lending, according to a press release. Effective July 28, 2025, the floor limit has been set at 167,000 for two financial institutions.

The announcement did not specify a ceiling for lending, leaving the focus solely on the newly established floor. This move is part of the central bank's ongoing efforts to regulate lending practices within the financial sector.

The decision affects two institutions, emphasizing the targeted approach of the policy. The central bank's release, however, did not provide further details on the criteria used to select these institutions or the expected impact on the broader financial market.

The banking community is expected to closely monitor the effects of this new floor limit on lending practices. As the financial landscape evolves, the State Bank of Pakistan continues to adjust its regulatory frameworks to maintain stability and growth.
