On Thursday, the Pakistani rupee (PKR) ended the session higher against the US Dollar (USD), extending its streak to 267 consecutive days of gains.
The currency settled at 276.85, up one paisa from the previous close.
The modest rise appeared to be influenced by the World Bank's recent warning that inflation in Pakistan is expected to climb to 8.2 percent.
Since December 25, 2025, the rupee has consistently posted gains against the dollar.
