The QAR-PKR exchange rate is shaped by various economic determinants, including interest rates, inflation, and macroeconomic indicators in both countries. The Qatar Central Bank (QCB) and the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) play pivotal roles in ensuring currency stability through prudent monetary policies. Qatar’s resilient economy, underpinned by vast hydrocarbon reserves, reinforces the QAR’s strength.
Conversely, Pakistan’s economy—driven by diverse industries and growing trade ties—impacts the PKR’s valuation. A stable QAR-PKR exchange rate fosters bilateral trade and investment, benefiting Qatari investors eyeing Pakistan’s emerging market and Pakistani exporters targeting Qatari demand.
