As a result, the average daily trading volume has surged to Rs 11.78 billion in 2021 from Rs 3.70 billion in 2015, resulting in trading volumes during the last five years being tripled.
He also briefed about the direct fund model (DFM), which directly collects funds from customers and transfers funds to their bank accounts without the involvement of broker(s). Shah highlighted operations of black-market operators in Pakistan that is a reason for concern for the country’s foreign exchange reserves and sought the help of Dr Akhter in cracking down on the black-market operators.
