SBP is one of the few public institutions in the country that have adhered to excellence in all fields especially human resource. With a competent and motivated human resource, the SBP has always strived to deliver the best and remained ahead of time compared to its regional peers.
It is no wonder therefore, that SBP stands out in various fields: • It was the first central bank in South Asia to have introduced a legal framework for microfinance in 2001; • It was the first central bank in South Asia to develop a regulatory framework for branchless banking in 2008;  • It was the first central bank in South Asia, again, to have established an independent Monetary Policy committee in 2015.
