The latest rise coincided with stronger international bullion prices. Gold is traded globally in US dollars, while domestic quotations in Pakistan are also influenced by the rupee-dollar exchange rate, local market premiums, supply and demand, and prevailing trading conditions.
Consequently, changes in international prices do not always translate into identical movements in Pakistan. The local price also depends on how global values are converted into domestic market quotations.
