Message from the Chief Executive Officer
◊ July 2017 IFMP Newsletter Page 3 ◊
he last few years have seen a rapid growth in size, quality and
sophistication of financial markets, because of changes in the
policy and regulatory environment, the entrepreneurial initiatives
of individuals and institutions, and the availability of trained man-
power. The continuing growth of financial markets is further adding
to the demand for well-trained professionals.
Institute of Financial Markets of Pakistan is dedicated to the profes-
sional development of financial markets and research on financial markets as well as the
well being of financial markets by educating the professionals about the norms and ethics
being practiced in the markets. IFMP has had a pioneering role in meeting the demand for
educated manpower. It is Pakistan's first specialized institution devoted to the education
and updating of knowledge of manpower for financial markets. It will provide high-
quality educational standards for all types of financial market participants; investors,
brokers, mutual funds, investment banks and policy makers.
The Institute's main activities are (1) Licensing the professionals working in the financial
markets by certifications. The institute’s key responsibility is to educate the professionals
working in different financial markets of Pakistan through examining their knowledge in
their relevant field of work; (2) Studying the latest developments in the financial markets
in order to discover whether there is such a thing as an ideal market economy; and (3)
Contributing to the development of financial markets in Pakistan. By means of these three
activities the Institute seeks to communicate its ideas to the audience both at home and
overseas. The Institute's research is intended, first and foremost, to be neutral, profes-
sional and practical. Rooted in practice, it aims to contribute to the healthy development
of Pakistani financial markets as well as to related policies by conducting neutral and pro-
fessional studies of how these markets and the financial system are regulated and orga-
nized and how they perform.
The economy is changing all the time. The Institute hopes that, by responding to these
changes positively, it can contribute to the dynamic development of the country's finan-
cial markets as well as of the economy itself.

Performance of Banking Stocks in Pakistan
◊ July 2017 IFMP Newsletter Page 7 ◊
The global banking industry appears to have recovered from the Global Financial Crisis of 2008 (GFC hereaf-
ter), that was initiated in September 2008 after Lehman brothers filed for bankruptcy. Most markets around
the world experienced a sharp decline, although in some markets the reaction was lagged and asymmetric.
Bartram and Bodnar (2009), Korinek et al. (2010), and Baur (2012) argue that extreme volatility in the USA
financial market is transmitted heterogeneously to global financial markets, especially during crisis. While
developed markets are greatly affected by the volatility in the USA market, the impact on emerging and fron-
tier markets may not be as pronounced. While the world markets were getting affected by the returns and
volatility spillovers from the US and other developed markets, the Pakistan market was dealing with its own
internal issues, which were primarily associated with political instability, incoherent policy execution, materi-
al weaknesses within the financial markets and weak macroeconomic fundamentals. A floor on the market
was placed on August 28, 2008 to avoid free fall of the market. The floor was in place for several months and
limited investors' exit from the market, which resulted in lost investor confidence. The floor was removed on
December 15, 2008 and the market experienced a sharp decline after that. It is argued that the shock to the
Pakistan financial market was a result of domestic issues.
This analysis performed in this paper is rather preliminary. Daily data with a five-day frequency is analysed.
The article provides an overview of the share price performance of the banks for an eleven-year period
(January 2007 – July 6, 2017). The full period is then classified into various periods as follows:
1. Full period of analysis: January 2007 to July 6, 2017
2. Pre-crisis: January 2007 to August 27, 2008
3. During crisis: August 28, 2008 to October 26, 2009
4. Post crisis: October 27, 20099 to July 6, 2017
In the absence of a definitive end date of the GFC, a date provided by scholars in academic literature is used as
the cut-off for the crisis period. Bartram and Bodner (2009) provide a detailed chronological list of global
events that took place surrounding the GFC. According to the authors, the effects of the GFC started easing off
in October 2009, although the markets were still in the state of recovery. While these dates appear to be arbi-
trary, in the absence of other evidence the period of analysis is segregated according to the dates cited by Bar-
tram and Bodner (2009).
Moreover, a graphical comparison of performance of the banking stocks and the KSE100 index is presented
by using indexed returns. All the data for the banking stocks and the KSE100 index has been extracted from
Bloomberg terminal.
Tables 3a to 3d provide descriptive statistics of share prices of the selected banks in all four periods of analysis.

Figure 1a: Indexed Returned of Banks (with higher weight on the index) vs. KSE100 Index
Figure 1b: Indexed Returned of Banks (with lower weight on the index) vs. KSE100 Index
It is evident that the KSE100 index has outperformed all the banks during the period of analysis. A steep in-
cline in returns of KSE100 index are witnessed since 2013. On the other hand, while the banks appeared to
have performed reasonable well over time.
It is argued that the banking industry in Pakistan was not affected by the GFC due to limited exposure to
global markets and also because they are well capitalized. The Pakistani banks are required to maintain a high
Capital Adequacy Ratio (CAR) as compared to their peers in other countries. While the report published by
SECP argues that the GFC has no impact on the Pakistan market, it is yet to be determined, whether global
events particularly associated with the banking industry impacted the Pakistan market in any manner.
Note: The data presented in Tables 1 and 2 is extracted from the websites of the banks included in the analysis, PA-
CRA, JCR-VIS, SECP, PSX. The daily share price information presented in Tables 3a-d and Figure 1a-b is extracted
from Bloomberg. The data for the KSE100 index is also extracted from Bloomberg.

Rs.54 Billion raised through PIBs
The first auction of Pakistan Investment Bonds in
2017-18 showed that the government is not interest-
ed in selling long-term bonds any more. It raised
Rs.54.5 billion through PIBs although the maturing
amount was Rs.689.5 billion.
The target for this auction was Rs.100 billion. The auc-
tion result announced by the SBP indicated that PIBs,
which remained the favored instrument in the first
three years of the present government, is no more a
preferred tool for raising liquidity. The government
raised trillions of rupees through long-term PIBs at
double-digit rates of returns. But they proved costly as
inflation and the benchmark interest rate registered a
steep fall.
The government raised Rs.20.8 billion for three years,
Rs.10.4 billion for five years and Rs.23.1 billion for ten
years. They received no bid for 20-year bonds. The
government requires to raise additional Rs.589.5 bil-
lion to meet maturing PIBs of Rs.689.5 billion.
SBP kept the Policy Rate Unchanged
The State Bank of Pakistan kept the policy rate un-
changed at 5.75% for another couple of months, citing
less-than-targeted inflation, higher domestic demand
and the expectation of the overall balance of payments
staying at a manageable level in 2017-18.
This projection is explained by lower-than-anticipated
increase in international oil prices,
behavior of consumer price index (CPI) in June, stable
administered prices and lower inflationary expecta-
tions. The current account deficit has been managed
by foreign exchange reserves and a financial account
surplus, which reached $9.6 billion during 2016-17
from $6.8 billion a year ago.
Apart from the increase in official inflows, this accu-
mulation incorporates the impact of the increase in
private-sector borrowing for CPEC projects.
Foreign Investment hit 8-year high
Foreign direct investment increased 4.6% to $2.41
billion in 2016-17. China emerged as the top investor
during the last three years with the onset of the China-
Pakistan Economic Corridor.
FDI from China in 2016-17 was $1.18 billion, almost
half of the total inflows received throughout the year.
The government expects the CPEC will stabilize the
economy in the long run as its large scale projects
bear fruit. A Dutch company bought a majority stake
in Engro Foods for $463 million, which made Nether-
lands the second biggest foreign investor.
According to the State Bank of Pakistan, overall for-
eign private investment decreased 5.3% to $1.88 bil-
lion compared to $1.98 billion a year ago. Portfolio
investment witnessed an outflow of $531 million com-
pared to the outflow of $320 million a year ago. Com-
pared to regional countries, Pakistan has been receiv-
ing smaller FDI over the years.
