Islamabad [Pakistan], April 7 (ANI): Amid the ongoing inflationary crisis in pakistan, the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) has increased the benchmark interest rate by 100 basis points (bps) to 21 per cent, according to Pakistan Today.

The Bank believed that this hike will reduce inflation but doing it by revising the interest rate does not seem to be working.
