What Is Influencing the KRW ↔ PKR Rate?
Several economic, geopolitical, and market‑specific factors are currently driving the exchange rate between South Korea and Pakistan.
1. Economic Conditions in Pakistan
- Inflation: High inflation erodes PKR’s purchasing power, putting downward pressure.
- Trade and import costs: Pakistan depends heavily on imports (oil, machinery, etc.). When these costs rise, PKR tends to weaken.
- Foreign exchange reserves & aid programs: Levels of reserves (and support from international lenders or aid) affect confidence in PKR.
2. South Korea & External Factors
- Export demand: Korea’s exports (electronics, autos, etc.) influence its currency strength. Strong export performance increases demand for KRW.
- Interest rates & monetary policy: The Bank of Korea’s policy on rates (versus global trends, especially US) matters.
- Global commodity prices: Especially oil, as many importing countries including Pakistan are sensitive.
3. Global Events & Investor Sentiment
- Geopolitical tensions or instability (both regionally & globally) can drive safe‑haven flows, affecting both currencies.
- US dollar strength: Since many global trades are dollar‑denominated, shifts in USD strength can impact both KRW and PKR indirectly.
- Inflation and rate policies in major economies (US, China, EU) have spillover effects.
