========== ==========
The Economy
For the last several years, the economy has been facing serious difficulties owing to persistent lapses in the
implementation of structural reforms and stabilization measures. The economy has now started to demonstrate
a sign of recovery. GDP has shown a growth by 4.5 % as against growth of 3.2 % last year. This recovery is
supported by 7.2% growth in the agricultural sector as against last year's 1.9%, witnessing an impressive
recovery on account of good cotton, wheat and rice crops. Similarly, the consumer price index during July
1999 to April 2000 declined to 3.6% as against 6.1% of the corresponding period last year. Exports during
the year grew by almost 10% as against a decline of 12% in the corresponding period last year. Likewise
imports grew by 10.9% as against a decline of last year's 9.4%. This resulted in decrease of 34% in the
current account deficit from US$ 1,812 million to US$ 1,195 million.
Fiscal deficit bas emerged as one of the major source of macro economic imbalance of our country. The
burden of interest payments is one of the most serious fiscal problems faced by us, because not only does it
consume 49% of the total revenue but it also lessens the Government's ability to spend on social and physical
infrastructure. Despite the fiscal deficit, the Government was able to raise its development expenditure by
20% for the year 2000-2001 to Rs. 120.4 billion, as against Rs. 100.6 billion of the previous fiscal year.
Although. the year under review registered an increase of 20.4% on industrial investment in the manufacturing
sector and an increase of 8.3 % in the net foreign private investment inflows, the ongoing dispute on tax
survey with the business community and continued increase in fuel prices, may hamper economic targets
for the year 2000-2001. At present, the economy is in the process of major structural adjustment and the
Government is keen to continue with the measures to promote a culture of tax compliance, levy of GST at
all stages and, privatization and liberalization of the economy. The Government's commitment towards an
increased role of the private sector, with continued emphasis on agriculture, small and medium sized industries.
is expected to result in setting a direction and pace for a balanced sectoral growth.
Leasing sector which experienced an extraordinary growth, in the past, is now facing challenges due to
competition and reducing spreads. Stiff competition from commercial and investment banks, who have the
resources and access to low cost funds, is yet another threat to the leasing sector. The economic conditions
have further forced leasing companies to turn their focus on the need for Balancing, Modernization and
Replacement requirements of industries, and consumer financing.
We are pleased to inform you that your Corporation is comfortably positioned to meet all these challenges
ahead, which will help in exploiting new opportunities from the industry. Your Corporation by the Grace of
Allah had generated quality business and improved its market share, during the year under review.
Overview of Operations
Operating profit before provisions, of your Corporation, were recorded at Rs. 135 million. Total revenues
for the year amounted to Rs. 633 million, of which Rs. 540 million were generated from lease income,
reflecting an 85% share of the total revenues. Financial charges and returns on certificate of investments,
being 75% of total costs, decreased to Rs.399 million from Rs.447 million last year, due to availability of
comparatively cheaper funds and efficient handling of short term borrowings. Administrative and operating
expenses were Rs.99 million, as against Rs.87 million in 1999, which mainly reflects the incidence of
inflation. Following a prudent policy, provisioning of Rs.57 million has been made against doubtful debts.
as compared to Rs.29 million in the previous year. Provision for diminution in value of investment witnessed
a reversal of Rs. 17 million as against increase of Rs. 16 million in 1999, due to appreciation in the market
value of the portfolio.
Fundings
Your Corporation was able to generate funds successfully through launch of Term Finance Certificates,
which was oversubscribed. This has demonstrated the Corporation's ability to arrange cost effective funds
locally. Banks and financial institutions have also reposed confidence by extending credit lines. The
Corporation continued to maintain a Cordial relationship with the multilateral agencies. However, the
Corporation decided not to avail undrawn loan amount of US$ 5 million, due to non-availability of forward
cover beyond one year as well as the high costs, associated with it.
Equity Investments
After touching lowest ebb in the preceding years, the leading market indicators displayed a modest recovery
at the beginning of the current financial year. The KSE index increased from 1055 points in June 1999 to
1252 points in July 1999 and by the end of March 2000 the index rose to 2000 points. Your Corporation was
to reap the benefit of the upsurge in share prices and recorded a gain of Rs. 12 million by selling part of it
equity portfolio. Besides, an amount of Rs. 17 million has been reversed from provision for diminution in
value of equity investments.
Regulatory Environment
Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan has updated the regulations governing the Leasing
Companies and promulgated Leasing Companies (Establishment and Regulation) Rules, 2000. These rules
are viewed as imperative for strength and growth of the leasing industry.
Achievements
During the year, the Management Association of Pakistan awarded the highly prestigious Corporate
Excellence Award for the year 1998, to your Corporation. This award is given to only two Companies every
year from the financial sector.
Future Outlook
Looking ahead, the Corporation recognizes the challenges of the future. Our focus will remain on steady
and sustainable growth. Our emphasis on innovation, creativity and quality service shall continue. Fresh
efforts are underway to attract new clients for consumer leasing. Diversification, lower risk and quality
lease portfolio will continue to be the guiding principles of our credit policy.
We shall continue to promote on environment where people are valued as assets who place all other assets
to work. We have and we shall continue to invest in developing motivated team players, through training
and professional growth.
Mission Statement

providing efficient and quality service to our clients and promoting sound business practices contributing to
the cause of the industry, in particular, and the economy, in general.
