Industrialists aren't happy with SBP's decision to cut the rate to 13%

While Pakistan's central bank has reduced the key interest rate by a cumulative 900 basis points since it began the monetary easing cycle in June, industrialists aren't happy.

A high interest rate makes borrowing more expensive and makes it more likely for investors to prefer risk-free investments such as keeping their money in saving accounts.

So, while the most recent 2% cut is a positive step, there is room for a further 5% reduction, according to President of the Karachi Chamber of Commerce Jawed Balwani.
