KEY HIGHLIGHTS
SUMMARY:
As per the data obtained from Fund Manager Reports and MUFAP, for the month of August 2020, the Shariah Compliant
Mutual Funds Industry grew by 21.475 billion (5.78%) to a total of PKR 371.528 billion from PKR 350.052 billion.
MARKET OVERVIEW:
During the month KSE-100 and KMI-30 increased by 4.72% and 4.03% on month on month basis, the decline in Covid-19
cases and the ease of lockdown lifted the sentiments of market participants and the market rebounded to pre-covid
levels. The country reported a current account surplus in the month of July’20 as worker remittances increased to a
record USD 2.77 Bn, highest ever in one month in the history of Pakistan along with a healthy export growth of 20% on
MoM basis.
Inflation, for the month of June 2020 increased to 8.6% YoY and 0.8% MoM. The upward pressure on food
basket kept the downward pressure on transport/fuel basket in check resulting in a slight month on month
increase in inflation.

KEY HIGHLIGHTS
FUTURE OUTLOOK:
Pakistan’s economy is moving towards stabilization as the COVID-19 cases dwindled down and the related restrictions
are eased. The core inflation is also stabilizing, we believe that inflation will decline due to downward pressure on food
prices. In line with SBP’s steps to counter the demand contraction caused by the pandemic, we do not rule out further
monetary easing provided that inflation remains below central bank’s target rate. The market is still trading at an
attractive PE of 7.8x against historical PE of 9x-10x and historical analysis have shown that market outperforms during
periods of low interest rates and manageable current account. Although the aftershocks of Covid-19 may keep the
growth rate on the lower side in short term, we believe once the pandemic is successfully contained that the economy
can go back to its historical growth rate trajectory.
