USD to PKR: Pakistani rupee suffers more losses against dollar in interbank market

-


 Pakistani rupee continues to fall against the dollar in the interbank market. As of 13 November 2023, 1 USD = 230.25 PKR.

The rupee has been under pressure in recent months due to concerns about the country's economic outlook. The trade deficit has been widening, and the rupee has been losing value against the dollar.

The State Bank of Pakistan has been trying to support the rupee by selling dollars from its reserves. However, these reserves are limited, and the central bank has been reluctant to sell too many dollars, as this could lead to inflation.

The rupee is likely to remain under pressure in the near term. The trade deficit is unlikely to narrow anytime soon, and the dollar is likely to continue to strengthen against other currencies.

Businesses and consumers should be aware of the risks associated with a depreciating currency. Businesses should hedge their foreign currency exposure, and consumers should avoid making large purchases in dollars.

The government needs to take steps to address the country's economic challenges. The trade deficit needs to be narrowed, and the government needs to find a way to boost exports. The government also needs to ensure that the economy is growing at a faster pace.

On November 9, 2023, surgeons at NYU Langone Health in New York City performed the world's first successful whole-eye transplant on a living person, Aaron James, a 46-year-old military veteran from Arkansas. James lost his left eye and part of his face in a work-related high-voltage electrical accident in 2021 . He underwent a 21-hour surgery to receive a whole-eye and partial face transplant from a deceased donor. The surgery was led by Dr. Eduardo Rodriguez, director of the Face Transplant Program at NYU Langone Health. Dr. Rodriguez and his team used 3D printing technology to create custom cutting guides to ensure the precision of the surgery. The transplant was a success, and James is now recovering at home.
