Emlaak: Pakistan’s first mutual fund marketplace

A mutual fund marketplace to drive up investor interest through housing all options under one roof

Finance Minister Miftah Ismail formally inaugurated Emlaak Financials, a digital aggregator platform for mutual funds at the Central Depository Company (CDC) House in Karachi on Friday.

The platform is a first of its kind for the Pakistani market. The pilot for Emlaak had been launched in 2021 to help with Sahulat account opening which can be done through the platform.

The content in this publication is expensive to produce. But unlike other journalistic outfits, business publications have to cover the very organizations that directly give them advertisements.

No wonder, Profit has lost multiple ad deals, worth tens of millions of rupees, due to stories that held big businesses to account.
