2. It has been decided that the markup rate for exporters availing financing facilities under Export Finance Scheme (EFS) will be 6.0% p.a. with effect from February 02, 2015 till further instructions. Banks’ spread for Corporate borrowers and SME borrowers will remain unchanged i.e. 1% & 2% respectively.

In order to reconcile the position of re-priced loans, banks should submit particulars of outstanding loans re-priced by the bank under EFS on prescribed annexure–I to the concerned SBP BSC office(s) within 10 days from announcement of this circular.
