Rupee’s fair value is under Rs240/$
Earlier Pakistan’s Deputy Prime Minister Ishaq Dar stated on Tuesday that, according to economic fundamentals, the rupee should not exceed Rs240 against the dollar.
He criticized the flexible exchange rate system, claiming it harms both the economy and the public.
During his address at the Pakistan China Institute forum, Dar expressed optimism for a significant interest rate reduction in the upcoming monetary policy committee meeting, attributing this to a notable decrease in inflation rates.
He noted that the Real Effective Exchange Rate (REER) for September indicated that the rupee should ideally range between Rs235 and Rs240 per dollar, emphasizing that the REER reflects the inflation-adjusted value of the currency compared to others.
