BankIslami Pakistan Limited (BIPL) dismissed on Friday reports of unusual movement in the price or volume of its shares during the preceding period.
The bank rebutted the reports in a notice to the Pakistan Stock Exchange (PSX) today.
“We do not have any information on the reason for the movement in price; however, we believe that the shares of BIPL may have attracted investor interest due to perceived valuation gaps, potentially contributing to the observed changes,” it told the bourse.
However, BIPL said the movement appears to reflect broader market dynamics and investor sentiment, rather than any specific action or undisclosed development related to BIPL.
