KARACHI: Remittances from overseas Pakistanis grew by 15.4 per cent in January, recording the second-highest collection this fiscal year.
Statistics released by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) on Tuesday show that the country received $3.46 billion in remittances in January. December 2025 saw the highest inflow of $3.59bn.
The country received a total of $23.2 billion during the July-January period of FY26, up 11.3pc from the previous year. Remittances jumped by $7.36bn from $15.83 in 7MFY24.
However, this growth has also made the country overly reliant on overseas Pakistanis, sparking concerns among economists.
