Pakistan, June 18 -- KARACHI - Pakistan's broad money supply, known as M2, rose to Rs38.09 trillion by June 6, 2025, showing a weekly increase of Rs4.32 billion, according to the State Bank of Pakistan. This marks a significant rise from Rs35.88 trillion recorded at the end of the last fiscal year, meaning the total increase since then has reached Rs2.21 trillion.

M2 is a key measure of liquidity in the economy. It includes both physical currency and non-government deposits held in commercial banks. A rise in M2 often signals increasing liquidity, which can impact inflation, banking activity, and overall economic trends. One of the most noticeable changes this week is the sharp jump in cash held by the public and institutions.
