What’s Influencing Gold Prices in Pakistan?
Several factors continue to affect the gold market in Pakistan, including:
-
Global gold prices set by international markets (London Bullion Market)
-
Exchange rate fluctuations, especially the PKR-USD parity
-
Inflation and interest rate policies by global central banks
-
Local demand during wedding and festive seasons
-
Economic uncertainty driving investors toward safe-haven assets
Experts predict that if global inflation remains high and the rupee continues to weaken, gold prices may stay elevated in the coming weeks.

It acts as a hedge against inflation

Highly liquid and globally accepted
-
Consistent long-term returns
-
No maintenance or management cost
-
Easily tradeable in local markets
Whether you’re saving for the future or preparing for an upcoming wedding, experts recommend gradual investment in gold rather than lump-sum purchases to avoid short-term volatility.
