The Exchange Companies Association of Pakistan (ECAP) reported a 0.08% appreciation, equivalent to Rs0.24, in the open market, with the closing rate at Rs281.94/$. The strengthening of the rupee is attributed to the rise in workers' remittances, which increased by 13% to $2.38 billion in December 2023 compared to the same period last year. The higher foreign currency inflows relative to their demand have contributed to the positive trend in the currency's value.
