KARACHI, April 29: The State Bank of Pakistan on Tuesday suspended the licences of Time Exchange Company-B (Pvt) Limited, Karachi and Union Exchange Company-B (Pvt) Limited, Lahore for a period of 30 days with immediate effect for violating its rules and regulations.

The exchange companies have been barred from undertaking any kind of business activity during the suspension period.
