Meezan Bank Roshan Digital Account Guide

Meezan Bank handles roughly 29% of all Roshan Digital Account inflows industry-wide — more than any other participating bank — making it the default RDA choice for many overseas Pakistanis. It offers home financing, car financing, and Islamic Naya Pakistan Certificates built specifically around the RDA framework.

For Overseas Pakistanis 29% Industry Share
Last Verified: August 20, 2026

If you're an overseas Pakistani, Meezan is very likely already your default option whether you've researched it or not — the bank handles roughly 29% of all Roshan Digital Account inflows industry-wide, more than any other participating bank. That scale brings a fuller product set than most competitors: home financing, car financing, investment certificates, and remittance partnerships all built specifically around the RDA framework.

This page pulls together everything RDA-specific in one place — the account itself, the financing products layered on top of it, and the Islamic Naya Pakistan Certificates that let NRPs (and eligible residents) invest at published, Shariah-compliant rates.

RDA inflow figures from Meezan's official FY2025 results. Apna Ghar, Roshan Apni Car, and Easy Remit details are from Meezan's official promotional materials.

Investment Options for RDA Holders

Beyond the deposit account itself, Meezan's RDA is built as an investment gateway. Three options are confirmed directly from Meezan's official RDA materials (meezanbank.com/roshan-digital-account/):

PSX Share Trading

Meezan makes a "PSX Trading Guidelines" document available directly on its RDA page, confirming RDA holders can invest in Shariah-compliant shares on the Pakistan Stock Exchange through the account.

Term Deposits

A dedicated "Term Deposit Remittance Form" is listed alongside the RDA Schedule of Charges, confirming RDA funds can be placed into Meezan term deposit products.

Al Meezan Mutual Funds

Confirmed via Meezan's official Roshan Digital Account FAQ: any individual NRP (CNIC/NICOP), POC holder, or government employee posted abroad who already has a Meezan RDA can invest, directly from the RDA web page, with a minimum investment of PKR 5,000.

PSX and Term Deposit access confirmed via downloadable guides listed on Meezan's RDA page. Al Meezan Mutual Funds access confirmed via Meezan's official Roshan Digital Account FAQ document — this corrects an earlier version of this page, which could not verify mutual fund access at the time.

Which Account Do You Need?

RDA, FCVA, NRVA, Resident Account — figure out which one is actually yours. Our RDA Eligibility Finder asks a few questions and tells you exactly which account you need, what documents to prepare, and which products (INPC, PSX, mutual funds, Apna Ghar, Apni Car) you qualify for.

Meezan Roshan Resident Account

A related but separate product from the RDA: the Meezan Roshan Resident Account is for Resident Pakistanis (not overseas Pakistanis) who have declared assets abroad on their latest tax returns. If you're resident in Pakistan with declared foreign assets, this — not the RDA — is the relevant account; confirm details directly with Meezan since this page focuses on the RDA itself.

How RDA Profit-Sharing Works

Meezan's RDA runs on Mudarabah for savings accounts and Qard for current accounts — the profit-sharing split between the bank (Mudarib) and the depositor (Rab-ul-Maal) varies by currency, confirmed directly from Meezan's official RDA page:

CurrencyBank's Share (Mudarib)Depositor's Share (Rab-ul-Maal)
PKR Savings Account50%50%
USD Savings Account75%25%
GBP Savings Account90%10%
EUR Savings Account90%10%

Sourced directly from Meezan Bank's official RDA page (meezanbank.com/roshan-digital-account/). These are the profit-sharing ratios, not the profit rate itself — the actual rate paid depends on the bank's declared monthly profit rate applied to the depositor's share.

RDA is no longer limited to Pakistani nationals — Non-Resident Foreign National Individuals and Entities can now open, maintain, and invest in Pakistan fully digitally through Meezan, with access to the same expected-return investment opportunities.
