Comment: None of the sources contribute anything towards notability per WP:ORG. We don't want to hear what the PBF has said about things, but what others (independent and reliable secondary sources) have said about the PBF. DoubleGrazing (talk) 10:01, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

The Pakistan Business Forum (PBF) (Urdu: پاکستان بزنس فورم)^[2] was established in 2019, and the Securities and Exchange Commission of Pakistan incorporated it under the Companies Ordinance 1984 on July 17, 2023, as a Company limited by guarantee. Its registered office is located in Lahore, and its jurisdiction extends across the entire country, both urban and rural areas.
