Baqir Reza
Baqir Reza is a notable Pakistani economist who served as the Governor of the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP). He has been in the news recently due to discussions surrounding the salary and benefits provisions granted to the SBP's leadership, which were highlighted in a Senate committee meeting. The committee raised concerns about the potential conflicts of interest arising from the SBP Amendment Act 2022, which allows the bank's board, led by the governor, to determine their own remuneration without government oversight.
