KARACHI: The US dollar in the interbank trade on Wednesday has recorded a retreat of Rs1.42 against the rupee as soon as the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia promised $3 billion deposit in the central bank, ARY News reported.
The charging US dollar that only yesterday made a new record of marching past the Rs175-mark against the bleeding rupee has receded on the back of Saudi Crown Prince MBS’ promises of two-pronged financial support up to $4.2 billion.
The forex traders have cited this KSA support for respite in rupee value, after Prime Minister Imran Khan’s visit to the kingdom that concluded yesterday.
In the mid-week interbank trading during the day, the dollar has shed Rs1.42 value and is presently trading at Rs173.85.
