Bank Alfalah is committed to the projection of Pakistan's rich cultural heritage. We strongly believe that the all must fulfill our social responsibilities in addition to achievement of the commercial objectives. A few examples set by Bank Alfalah are Alfalah Square, Alfalah Mini Golf and the resurrection of Shahdin Manzil on the main Mall road (Shahrah-e-Quaid-e-Azam), Lahore.

 

 Shahdin Manzil symbolizes more than an ideal colonial architecture. It is known by the name of and stands testimony to the memory of its owner, the first Muslim judge of the High Court - Justice Shahdin Humayun and substantiates Lahore's claim as a centre of academic and cultural excellence. It has always remained as a landmark in the historic city of Lahore with its typical architectural beauty. Over the years, the elements of nature and neglect had rendered the building uninhabitable. The management of Bank Alfalah has chose to resurrect Shahdin Manzil to its original splendor and grandeur.

Over the years, the elements of nature and neglect had rendered the building uninhabitable. The management of Bank Alfalah has chose to resurrect Shahdin Manzil to its original splendor and grandeur. The restoration work resulted in a fusion of the old with the new, together with some interesting new design elements. This spirit of merger that is being carried into the new design with modern building techniques and materials assures us that the old blends seamlessly with the new, and yet hold its own place. Bank Alfalah has also allotted 3/4th of a floor of this building to house an I.T. library with round the clock research facilities for I.T. developers and researchers. The bank has not changed its name and the renovated, refurbished and redecorated building will continue with its original name i.e. "SHAHDIN MANZIL".

 

 

Shahdin Manzil has developed into a state-of-the-art, technologically advanced and intelligent office premises, which incorporates all the concepts of a modern office while maintaining the facade of the building. It has been made structurally sound with most modern and high-tech office facilities within its walls but would retain its original and historic look from its exterior. The new look of Shahdin Manzil stands out as a model of most modern facilities blended with history and grandeur of the past.

State Bank of Pakistan


The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) (بینک دولت پاکستان) is the central bank of Pakistan. While its constitution, as originally laid down in the State Bank of Pakistan Order 1948, remained basically unchanged until January 1, 1974, when the bank was nationalized, the scope of its functions was considerably enlarged. The State Bank of Pakistan Act 1956, with subsequent amendments, forms the basis of its operations today. The headquarters are located in the financial capital of Pakistan,Karachi with its second headquarters in the capital, Islamabad.

Before independence on 14 August 1947, during British colonial regime the Reserve Bank of India was the central bank for both India and Pakistan. On 30 December 1948 the British Government's commission distributed the Reserve Bank of India's reserves between Pakistan and India -30 percent (750 M gold) for Pakistan and 70 percent for India.

Under the State Bank of Pakistan Order 1948, the state bank of Pakistan was charged with the duty to "regulate the issue of bank notes and keeping of reserves with a view to securing monetary stability in Pakistan and generally to operate the currency and credit system of the country to its advantage".

A large section of the state bank's duties were widened when the State Bank of Pakistan Act 1956 was introduced. It required the state bank to "regulate the monetary and credit system of Pakistan and to foster its growth in the best national interest with a view to securing monetary stability and fuller utilisation of the country’s productive resources". In February 1994, the State Bank was given full autonomy, during the financial sector reforms.

The amendments to the Banks Nationalization Act  brought the end of the Pakistan Banking Council (an institution established to look after the affairs of NCBs) and allowed the jobs of the council to be appointed to the Chief Executives, Boards of the Nationalised Commercial Banks (NCBs) and Development Finance Institutions (DFIs). The State Bank having a role in their appointment and removal. The amendments also increased the autonomy and accountability of the chief executives, the Boards of Directors of banks and DFIs.

The State Bank of Pakistan also performs both the traditional and developmental functions to achieve macroeconomic goals.

The State Bank of Pakistan has also been entrusted with the responsibility to carry out monetary and credit policy in accordance with Government targets for growth and inflation with the recommendations of the Monetary and Fiscal Policies Co-ordination Board without trying to effect the macroeconomic policy objectives.

The state bank also regulates the volume and the direction of flow of credit to different uses and sectors, the state bank makes use of both direct and indirect instruments of monetary management. During the 1980s, Pakistan embarked upon a program of financial sector reforms, which lead to a number of fundamental changes. Due to these changed the conduct of monetary management which brought about changes to the administrative controls and quantitative restrictions to market based monetary management. A reserve money management programme has been developed, for intermediate target of M2, that would be achieved by observing the desired path of reserve money - the operating target.
