Prime Minister Imran Khan Sunday announced new milestones and achievements by the Roshan Digital Account (RDA) initiative.
Taking to Twitter, the prime minister shared “good news” from the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP), saying that inflows through RDAs and its accounts and deposits had broken records.
Roshan Digital Account achieves more milestones. Inflows crossed $1.5 bn on Friday, with investment in Naya Pakistan Certificates surpassing $1 bn,” he tweeted.
He announced that accounts and deposits at the Roshan Digital Account had also set new records since the “$1bn event two months ago”.
In April, the SBP had announced that foreign exchange inflows through the RDA had crossed the $1b mark.
“The fund inflows through RDA have crossed $1bn in just over seven months,” the State Bank had stated in a tweet.
An elated PM Khan had also taken to Twitter to thank overseas Pakistanis and the SBP for ensuring more foreign exchange inflows for the country.
“Alhamdulillah, funds received through RDA have crossed $1bn. I would like to thank our overseas Pakistanis for their overwhelming response; also appreciate the efforts of State Bank of Pakistan and banks for achieving this significant milestone in such a short period,” the premier had tweeted two months ago.
