Naya Pakistan Certificates Features

Islamic Naya Pakistan Certificates (Shariah Compliant Version)

• INPCs are based on a Mudaraba structure whereby the investor invests in a Mudaraba pool that is used to extend Shariah compliant financing to the Federal Government.
• Investment is remunerated from the profits earned by this pool.
• For this purpose, Federal Government has created a special purpose vehicle, Islamic Naya Pakistan Certificate Company Limited (INPCCL) fully owned by it.
• This company is housed and managed by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) on the basis of a mandate given by the company’s Board.
• Since INPCs are offered in USD, GBP, Euro and PKR denominations, the company maintains separate Mudaraba pools for each respective currency i.e. USD, GBP, EURO and PKR.

How Can You Invest in NPCs?

Open a Roshan Digital Account

• Non-Resident Pakistanis (NRPs) can invest in NPCs through their Roshan Digital Account, which they can open online in a completely presence-less manner, without the need to visit any bank branch in Pakistan, or an embassy or a consulate. The account can be opened in PKR or foreign currency, or both. (Click here for details on how to open an account)
• Resident Pakistanis who have declared assets abroad with FBR can invest in USD-denominated NPCs. To do so, they can open a Roshan Digital Account in foreign currency by visiting a bank branch in Pakistan. (Click here for details)

Transfer Funds in Your Account

• After opening your Roshan Digital Account with the bank of your choice, you will remit funds from outside Pakistan through normal banking channels.
• Using the funds in your account, you can invest in NPCs.

Choose the NPC and Subscribe

• You will be able to subscribe to the certificate electronically using your bank’s online portal.
• You will need to select the conventional or Shariah-form, currency (PKR, USD, Euro or Pound), tenor (3-month, 6-month, 1 year, 3 years and 5 years), and the amount to be invested.
• The PKR-denominated NPCs can be purchased from the balance in your PKR Roshan Digital Account.
• The USD, GBP and Euro-denominated NPCs can be purchased from the balance in your foreign-currency Roshan Digital Account. If you have a foreign-currency Roshan Digital Account in a currency other than the currency of NPC you intend to purchase, your bank will debit your account by applying the exchange rate prevailing at the time of execution of the transaction.
