State Bank of Pakistan has entrusted the task of enlistment and monitoring of Professional Valuers to Pakistan Banks’ Association (PBA).
In the context of the banking industry in Pakistan, Professional Valuers are individuals or organizations that appraise the value of assets and collaterals provided to Banks and Financial Institutions for the purpose of securing loans & advances and any other facilities.
The banking industry may only use the services of PBA enlisted Professional Valuers for assessment of value of assets located in Pakistan. They will also use the services of PBA enlisted Professional Valuers for assessment of values of assets that do not form collaterals.
Professional Valuers do not require PBA enlistment for issuing Valuation Reports that will not be used by the local banking industry. Likewise, Financial Institutions that are not regulated by State Bank of Pakistan are not required to use the services of PBA enlisted Professional Valuers.
