Gold and silver prices jumped sharply in Pakistan on Wednesday amid ongoing instability in the global precious metals market. Global bullion prices have been under pressure due to the ongoing geopolitical tensions, especially the US-Iran confrontation and the uncertainty over the US Federal Reserve’s interest rate policy.
Gold demand remains robust and central banks continue to add the precious metal to their holdings. In Pakistan, the volatility of the Pakistani rupee against the US dollar and continued economic instability have compounded the impact of rising foreign costs. Accordingly, the local sarafa markets often revise the rates of gold and silver in tune with the ups and downs of the global market.
Here are today’s current gold and silver rates in Pakistan.
