We believe each of these sectors, in itself, offers an exciting and attractive long-term investment proposition in Pakistan. Our diversification across these sectors allows JS to ride out each sector's individual business cycle and take a long term approach to investing in and building our businesses.
The group has offices throughout the major cities in Pakistan and manages its international operations from its London and Dubai offices.
At JS, we continually challenge ourselves to dynamically grow our businesses, both internally and through world-class partnerships, while setting ever-higher standards of excellence and governance.
JS Group partnerships in Pakistan include:
- Allianz (Insurance)

- Dubai Bank (Islamic banking)
- Experian (Credit bureau)
- Global Investment House K.S.C.C. (Securities & Investment Banking)

Our strategy is to identify underserved markets and customer segments in Pakistan. We then study similar markets internationally to understand different strategies to successfully address those markets' needs.
Once we understand the market opportunity, and the one or more ways it can be addressed, we seek out organizations with the skills, processes, systems, expertise and brand, to develop a solution to meet customers' needs.
