Pakistan Government Reviews 111 National Savings Centers for Cost Efficiency

October 3, 2026 • 3 weeks ago •

ISLAMABAD: The Pakistan government has initiated a review of 111 National Savings Centers, identifying them as financially inefficient and potentially unsustainable. This decision aims to address high operational costs and enhance the overall effectiveness of these centers.

In a directive to regional offices, the National Savings has mandated the preparation of plans to either reduce operating costs or increase deposits and business activity. The new operational cost benchmark has been set at Rs. 2,500 per Rs. 1 million in deposits, emphasizing the need for these centers to improve their financial performance.

This review comes at a critical time as the government seeks to optimize public financial institutions amidst economic challenges. Citizens relying on these savings centers for secure investment options may face changes in services, potentially impacting their savings strategies.

Moving forward, the National Savings is expected to monitor the performance of these centers closely, with follow-up assessments planned to ensure compliance with the new operational standards. Stakeholders are urged to adapt swiftly to the new criteria to avoid further scrutiny.
