As per the circular released by SBP, the central bank has reduced the risk weight of banks and DFIs by half from 200pc to 100pc on investment in Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs).

The revised regulations have enabled the banks to enhance their investment in REITs without allocating large amount of capitals.
