Service Long March Tyres Limited\u00a0(SLM)\u00a0<\/a>on Monday joined the Pakistan Stock Exchange through a formal listing ceremony, which marks another addition to the bourse’s growing roster of newly listed companies this fiscal year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The “Gong Ceremony” for SLM’s listing was virtually addressed by Federal Minister for Finance and Revenue, Senator Muhammad Aurangzeb, who used the occasion to comment on the recently announced U.S.-Iran peace agreement, calling it a proud moment for Pakistan and a positive development for the global economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Finance Minister said Pakistan’s leadership continued to be acknowledged by both the U.S. administration and Iranian leadership for the trust placed in them, according to a post by the Ministry of Finance on its X account.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On capital markets, Senator Aurangzeb congratulated the PSX management and board on their performance and noted rising participation from investors, particularly young entrants to the market.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said SLM’s listing represented another milestone, pointing out that the current fiscal year had seen 11 IPOs, the highest in nearly two decades.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He described it as a strong vote of confidence reflecting growing trust in Pakistan’s economic direction.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On SLM specifically, the Minister recalled his association with the project since its early stages, calling it a successful example of industrial cooperation and export-oriented investment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He praised its execution during the peak of the COVID period and acknowledged the role of Chinese expertise and continued investor confidence in Pakistan.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He credited Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif and Field Marshal Syed Asim Munir for their persistent mediation efforts, which he said had helped bring the agreement to its conclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Senator Aurangzeb said Pakistan’s role in facilitating dialogue and supporting de-escalation had strengthened the country’s standing as a constructive partner in regional peace and stability, reflecting its broader commitment to diplomacy and peaceful dispute resolution.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Referring to the Prime Minister’s announcement that a Memorandum of Understanding would be signed later this week, the Minister said the development held encouraging implications for Pakistan’s economy and regional stability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He said Pakistan had managed the first-order economic impact of the conflict over the past three months and expressed confidence that the agreement would ease concerns over anticipated secondary and tertiary effects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While disruptions to energy infrastructure would take time to normalize, he said the announcement created a more positive outlook for economic activity and upside potential for the next fiscal year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He concluded by reaffirming Pakistan’s commitment to creating an enabling investment environment, strengthening capital markets, and expanding international economic partnerships for sustainable growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
