Performance Evaluation System for Investment Abroad State Bank of Pakistan 3 2. Project Background & Overview Exchange Policy Department (EPD), one of the core departments of State Bank, is responsible for regulating Pakistan’s foreign exchange regime. The department is engaged in process of exchange policy formulation and implementation to bring the country’s foreign exchange regime in line with Federal Government’s and SBP’s policies. The Exchange Policy Department, being part of the Banking Policy and Regulations Group, reviews the existing rules and regulations on continuous basis to facilitate foreign exchange activities in the country. Foreign exchange business in Pakistan is governed / regulated under Foreign Exchange Regulation Act, 1947 (FERA, 1947). Foreign Exchange Manual outlines the rules and regulations governing foreign exchange business in the country for the guidance of Authorized Dealers (ADs), and general public including local/ foreign investors as well as other stakeholders. The changes in instructions/ policies/ procedures are brought through F.E. Circulars/ Circular Letters issued by EPD. The Investment Abroad and Commercial Remittance Division of EPD has a mandate for the implementation/ compliance of the government policies relating to current & capital account transactions. The capital account transactions include Equity Investment Abroad (EIA) by domestic corporates, FIs & individuals [through Employees Stock Option Plans (ESOP), investment in listed shares and sweat equity]. Recently, with the approval from Federal Government, EPD, vide circular # 01 dated July 11, 2024, issued revised policy on EIA, as contained in Para 13, Chapter 20 of Foreign Exchange Manual, under which the resident individuals and companies can undertake EIA transactions under following five categories: i. Category-A1: Establishment of subsidiary/branch/liaison/marketing office abroad by companies operating in the IT sector. ii. Category-A2: Establishment of subsidiary/branch/liaison/marketing office abroad by companies (other than companies in the IT sector) for promoting exports. iii. Category-B: Establishment of Holding Company (HoldCo) abroad by resident companies for raising capital from abroad. iv. Category-C: Investment abroad by resident companies for expansion of business. v. Category-D: Investment abroad by Resident Individuals While function of approving EIA transactions under category “A1”, “A2”, “B” & “D” has been delegated to ADs subject to obtaining SBP’s acknowledgment of designation of bank and observing the relevant instructions, the function of approving the EIA proposals under category “C” resides with SBP. Further, the function of approving EIA transactions from ESFCA under category A1 & A2 has also been delegated to ADs subject to observance of relevant instructions. Nevertheless, the ADs are under obligation to maintain record of proposals approved either by them or SBP in both soft and hard form. Additionally, the EIA policy mandates that Designated ADs/ADs retain records of post-approval activities, such as funds remitted by the applicant, details of entities established or acquired abroad, and the repatriation of profit, dividends, royalties to Pakistan, among other relevant transactions. The EIA policy also obligates Designated ADs/ADs to assess the performance of entities formed or acquired abroad on an annual basis. This evaluation includes a review of key financial indicators and an analysis of the benefits these entities provide to Pakistan's economy, particularly in terms of the repatriation of profit, dividends, and royalties. While Designated ADs/ADs are currently maintaining manual record of pre and post EIA approval activities, it has been decided to create a central repository, in parallel, at SBP where data related to all such activities can be captured in soft form. The repository has been named as “Performance Evaluation System for Investment Abroad (PESIA)” in which banks are required to upload data of various EIA approval activities on different Data File Structures (DFS) systematically through Data Acquisition Portal (DAP) on the prescribed frequency. DAP users of banks can access the relevant portal, by logging in with their existing DAP credentials, at the following link:
