How safe is it to open a foreign currency account (USD) in pakistan?
Is there any guarantee that it wont be taken away at will by the Govt. , and in the best case offered PKR at whatever conversion rate the bank decides on that day…
My father opened one last year, we hope gov will not freeze FCAs. My father has it with UBL, he can check the balance online and even make electronic transfer.
I have a couple of FCAs in Pakistan, in Habib Bank A.G Zurich. I only use 'em to wire money to may parents. I never keep any balance in those accounts though.
