ISLAMABAD/Multan - The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) will announce monetary policy on November 04 in a meeting of the Monetary Policy Committee (MPC). The MPC will meet on Monday, November 04, to decide about the monetary policy, a press release issued by SBP said. The SBP will announce the monetary policy decision in a press statement on the same day after the MPC meeting, it added. Meanwhile, The Multan Chamber of Commerce and Industry (MCCI) has urged the government to reduce the policy rate by at least 5 per cent in the upcoming Monetary Policy Committee (MPC) meeting to support the business community and stabilise the economy. The reduction would help create a better business environment in Pakistan, similar to other developing countries where policy rates are kept in single digit to encourage business growth and investment.
