Governor, State Bank of Pakistan Visits IDRBT

Dr. Ishrat Husain, Governor, State Bank of Pakistan, visited IDRBT on October 07, 2005. He had a one-to-one meeting with the Director to update himself on the activities and priorities of IDRBT. He then met the Faculty members of the Institute and discussed about various research activities of the Institute. 

He pointed out that an Institute like IDRBT exclusively focused on Technology in Banking provides a great impetus to the Banking and Financial Sector, especially when technology was emerging as the crucial differentiator. Pakistan should also have an Institute like IDRBT and possibilities of collaborating with IDRBT needs to be explored, he said. 

Later, he visited the various facilities at IDRBT and complimented the Institute for its various initiatives such as INFINET, Certifying Authority, etc.
