ISLAMABAD (The Thursday Times) — Pakistan apne maujooda Eurobond qarz ko tokenise karne par ghaur kar raha hai aur request for proposals jari karne se pehle cabinet se manzoori lega, Wazir-e-Khazana Muhammad Aurangzeb ne Peer ko kaha.
Aurangzeb ne yeh mansooba digital assets aur banking ke mustaqbil par aik mukalme mein bataya, jis ka ehtimam Pakistan Banks Association ne Lahore University of Management Sciences ke saath mil kar kiya tha. Unhon ne kaha ke is khayal par baat cheet jari hai.
Aam taur par tokenisation ka matlab kisi asase ki malkiyat ko digital ledger par darj karna hai. Maqsad sarkari qarz ke intizam mein is ke istemal ka jaiza lena hai, jis se digital len den aur sarmayakari ke naye raste khul sakte hain.
Wazir-e-khazana ne banks par zor diya ke woh apni amali tajaweez khud tayyar karein aur in technologies ka jaiza lene ki maharat paida karein, aur is dauran apne daira-e-ikhtiyar ke andar rehte hue regulators ke saath mil kar kaam karein. Pakistan mein ab is shobe ke liye Virtual Assets Act 2026 ke teht qanooni dhancha maujood hai, jis mein Pakistan Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority service providers ko license jari karti hai. State Bank ne banks ko license yafta karobar ko khidmat faraham karne ka mashroot rasta diya hai, lekin woh ab bhi apne funds ya customers ke deposits se virtual assets mein sarmayakari nahin kar sakte, un ki trading nahin kar sakte aur unhein apne paas nahin rakh sakte.
Aurangzeb ne kaha ke innovation ke saath saath hifazati iqdamat, nigrani aur cybersecurity ka hona zaroori hai. "Hum par 24/7 riyasti aur ghair riyasti actors ki taraf se hamle ho rahe hain," unhon ne kaha, aur kaha ke ghaflat ki koi gunjaish nahin hai.
