Commenting on the achievement, Tareq Refat Ullah Khan, Managing Director & CEO, said: "Strong CASA growth is the foundation of a resilient balance sheet. This milestone reflects our customers' unwavering trust and the disciplined execution of our teams." "As we continue to strengthen our funding base, we are better positioned to support businesses, empower entrepreneurs, and contribute meaningfully to the economic progress of the country," he added.
