'BRI states must adopt diversified supply chain'
Listen to article In the current environment, the global supply chain has been continuously upgrading digitally, ie, achieving innovative and sustainable development, which is also a major responsibility that Pakistan and China should shoulder together, remarked National Bank of Pakistan (NBP) Beijing Office Chief Representative Shaikh Muhammad Shariq. Speaking at a panel discussion on supply chain services held during the 3rd China International Supply Chain Expo, the chief representative pointed out that the key link is to provide complete localised financial services and reduce conflicts between traders, which is crucial for both large leading enterprises and small startups. "The global supply chain must take a diversified path, not only for industrial powers like China, but also for all countries participating in the Belt and Road Initiative (BRI), and of course Pakistan, which is jointly developing CPEC (China-Pakistan Economic Corridor)." Shariq emphasised, "The optimised financing mechanism will allow us to have smoother capital flow and reduce our reliance on a single path, helping us to seek better financing strategies." Talking specifically about financial links between China and Pakistan, Shariq elaborated on NBP's efforts. "In 1981, we entered the Chinese market and opened a representative office in Beijing. Since then, we have been helping Chinese companies in different fields that are interested in doing business in Pakistan." "From a deeper perspective, policymakers in China and Pakistan have established very deep connections to simplify all financial-related processes, assisting us to confidently provide comprehensive services in the current complex and changing international environment, solving financial problems and of course the most important liquidity problem for enterprises. In a nutshell, a very stable supply chain ecosystem allows better cross-border cooperation between our two countries."

Go Cashless: cattle markets settle Rs4.66bn via 64,553 online transactions on Eid-ul-Adha 2025
KARACHI: The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) reported on Wednesday that cattle markets had made 64,553 online payments worth Rs4.656 billion to settle transactions for sacrificial animals among buyers and sellers on Eid-ul-Adha that fell in the first week of June this year. The number of transactions in terms of volume and value both spiked compared to Eid-ul-Adha 2024 when buyers and sellers made a total of 13,000 digital transactions valued at Rs560 million, a figure that the central bank gave in a statement earlier this year. SBP launches nationwide 'Go Cashless' campaign for Eid-ul-Adha According to the SBP statement on Wednesday, the rise in transactions was the result of the central bank's campaign titled 'Go Cashless' for the cattle markets in 2025. 'With the participation of 24 partner banks, the campaign was successfully implemented in 54 major cattle markets across Pakistan.' To support the Go Cashless campaign, the SBP had temporarily eliminated daily transaction limits and the per-month limit had been increased to Rs5,000,000 for Branchless Banking Level-1 Accounts, Asaan Account/Asaan Digital Account, and Merchant Accounts for the period (May 19 to June 15, 2025). Launched before Eid-ul-Adha (May 20 to June 6), the Go Cashless campaign aimed to promote Digital Financial Services (DFS) and reduce reliance on cash transactions in urban cattle markets. 'This campaign was highly appreciated by the buyers and sellers in the cattle markets, as it reduced their reliance on cash,' the central bank said. Eid-ul-Adha 2025: NBP installs ATM booth at Karachi cattle market SBP, Banking Services Corporation (SBP BSC), hosted an award ceremony on Wednesday in Karachi to honour high-performing banks for their contributions to the Go Cashless in Cattle Markets Campaign 2025. In recognition of the regional impact of campaign, SBP field offices also organised recognition ceremonies for participating banks in their respective regions. Digital payment systems play a vital role in modern economies by offering transparency, reducing fraud risks, and providing secure, convenient, and inclusive access to financial services. 'Initiatives like Go Cashless are crucial in building trust and driving the adoption of digital platforms among a wide range of users, including livestock buyers and sellers,' the central bank said.
