flag Pakistan’s Karachi Cotton Exchange shut down over two weeks ago after a sudden takeover, disrupting exports, jobs, and financing.

flag Pakistan's Karachi Cotton Exchange has been closed for over two weeks after the Evacuee Property Trust Board took control without warning, halting cotton trading and disrupting a sector that drives nearly 60% of the country’s exports and supports 70% of employment. flag More than 320 brokers are unable to operate, and the absence of official spot rates since December 12 is hindering financing for spinning mills. flag Industry leaders and analysts criticize federal inaction and the Karachi Cotton Association’s silence, warning of worsening economic instability, supply chain issues, and declining investor confidence amid ongoing governance failures.
