KARACHI: On Thursday, PKR continued to go down against USD in both interbank and open markets with no spread between buying and selling in interbank market. It also fell down by one and a half rupee against Euro in open market. Analysts have pointed out rising imports and import commodity prices as main factors jacking up demand for Euro, USD and other majors thus driving PKR downwards. In global markets, Euro was holding near one month high against the dollar at the time of writing of this report as a consequence to hawkish comments made by ECB policymakers after data showed inflation at decade high levels.

INTER-BANK MARKET RATES: In the interbank market, Pakistan Rupee lost 20 paisas for buying and 10 paisas for selling against USD over yesterday's rates closing at 167 and 167 respectively.
