\nDemonstrating its commitment to embracing next-generation financial technology, EClear Services is set to become the first institution in Pakistan\u2019s stock market to adopt Raast P2M Request to Pay Later (RTPL) and Dynamic QR Code use cases.
\nThese solutions will introduce more convenient and efficient ways to initiate, manage, and collect payments, with potential applications across a range of broker operations.
\nOne such application is the automation of debit and margin calls by EClear\u2019s connected TO brokers, offering a more streamlined alternative to conventional payment collection processes.
\nThis initiative highlights how the integration of digital payments and verification services can translate into tangible operational benefits for capital market participants.
\nBy adopting these capabilities, institutions can improve payment collection workflows, reduce manual intervention, and deliver a more seamless experience for investors.
\nSpeaking on the occasion, Mr. Badiuddin Akber, Chief Executive Officer, CDC, stated: \u201cCDC was the first capital market institution to connect with the State Bank of Pakistan\u2019s Raast system, successfully implementing RAAST 1st use case of bulk payments mechanism for its eDividend initiative in 2021. Since then, we have continued to adopt the latest payment solutions under the Raast framework and extend their benefits to capital market participants, including mutual fund companies, stockbrokers, and insurance companies. Our expanded collaboration with EClear Services further reinforces our commitment to driving digital innovation and efficiency across Pakistan\u2019s capital market.\u201d
\nThrough its Raast Aggregator framework, CDC continues to expand the digital capabilities available to Pakistan\u2019s capital market, leveraging the State Bank of Pakistan\u2019s Raast infrastructure to facilitate innovative payment solutions and streamlined financial processes.
