KKI initiated the diversified currency exchange business and
evolved as leaders in this business. Its wide variety of
customer services, together with its rapid growth, unique
financial system and value added services has provided the
platform for the emergence of KKI as the leading Exchange
Company of Pakistan.
To evolve a documented economy, in 2003, State Bank of Pakistan
converted money changers throughout the country into exchange
companies. Under the rules and regulations stated by SBP, all
the exchange companies have been granted permission to make home
remittance transactions, making of traveler’s cheques, issuing
demand drafts besides the core business of currency exchange
catering the customers at national and international levels. KKI
sincerely embraced the decision and holds the privilege to stand
among the early birds to get the exchange company license by SBP.
Since its transition as an Exchange Company, KKI has reflected
its true zeal and commitment to bring documentation and
transparency in its line of business and supported SBP in the
progress of country’s economy. ISO certification is also a
concrete step towards the documented economy and the
standardization of our products, our system of operations and
good will of the economy. Now, we have entered into a new era of
Security Management through ISO 27001. KKI, after realizing the
need of a secure system and ensuring the confidentiality,
integrity and availability of the information that it holds,
achieved ISO 27001(Information Security Management System i.e.
ISMS). We are the first and the only exchange company of
Pakistan which has achieved this certification.
KKI has spread its roots from Karachi to Khyber through its
branches and franchises, where as, through international
correspondents, it has also expanded its network internationally
as well. Its wide spread network, extraordinary customer care
and trustworthy customer relation have given the privilege to
KKI to stand as the most inspiring name in its industry.
However, the same customer confidence has bent KKI to serve its
customers with the best products and services.
KKI has also setup IT culture and equipped its network with
sophisticated IT softwares, systems and procedures not only for
the ease and comfort of the staff but also to face the
challenges of 21st century with pride.
Our Commitments as an Exchange Company:
Keeping in front, the importance of economic stability for the
country, KKI has and will always work for the betterment of the

the world has changed so much that the traditional way of doing
business will not help individuals or even the nations way
longer towards the way to progress and prosperity. KKI believes
