Three debt instruments with a combined value of Rs27.8 billion (approx. $100.34 million) were listed on the Pakistan Stock Exchange's (PSX) debt market during the first quarter of FY26-27, the bourse said in a notice on Tuesday. The listings span banking and corporate issuers.

According to the PSX, Faysal Bank Limited listed Rs7 billion in Rated, Unsecured, Subordinated Sukuk (FABLSC), while Bank Alfalah Limited listed Rs20 billion in Rated, Unsecured, Subordinated Tier-2 Term Finance Certificates (BAFLTFC9). At-Tahur Limited listed Rs800 million in Rated, Secured Sukuk (PREMASTSC).

The exchange said trading in all three instruments has commenced in the secondary market, providing Qualified Institutional Buyers (QIBs) with diverse avenues to invest in Pakistan's deepening debt capital market, across both conventional and Shariah-compliant structures.

A debt capital market involves borrowing money from investors for a specified period, with the issuer providing a payout at a fixed or floating percentage over the term. At maturity, the principal amount is repaid to the investor.
