It was established in 2021 on an emergency base to eliminate the name of Pakistan from the gray list of the Financial Action Task Group (FATF).

Postal life insurance currently has RS48 billion in funds, but the amount is lying with the Ministry of Finance, which does not return the amount or interest paid, company officials said to the NA panel. They added that the company could not pay its customers its insurance claims in time due to the shortage of funds.
