Finance Minister Ishaq Dar announced that the United Arab Emirates has deposited $1 billion with the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP), saying that it would boost the country’s foreign exchange reserves.

The minister’s announcement comes a day after Saudi Arabia deposited $2bn with the central bank and just hours before a crucial meeting of the International Monetary Fund’s executive board that Pakistan hopes would approve a $3bn standby arrangement agreed last month.
