A Legacy of Innovation & Excellence. Pioneering Financial Solutions Since 1994
Mr. Muhammad Gulraze Mir (1948-2019), the Founder and the Chairman Emeritus, was a visionary and prudence businessman who had a precognition personality with the ability to peer into the future trends by alwayskeeping an eye opened on the rolling ball of the word financial market in mid-80’ during his exposure to financial trading in London.
He would keenly observe the forthcoming changes and the new developments in the land scape of the world financial markets, he was well aware that the boundary-bounded corporate ledmarkets would soon flow towards the retail, over-the-counter, computer and live data disseminated market which in turn would create new financial products and services for the sector.
Being a Phd. in International Economic Development, he was mindful of these changes and was expecting in those days that the course will alter itself from physical to a palm-based investing. He also knew that sooner than later these progresses will knock the doors in Pakistan to cater the need of businessmen.
Mr. Mir entered into the financial brokerage business in 1994 and this proved so right, as today his vision brought the Harvest Group to a position of one of the leading market participants and the player at the mercantile and equities exchanges in Pakistan.
Harvest Group reiterates its commitment to the transparency and the integrity and will remain steadfast in our belief that precision is vital in maintaining an equitable and just trading environment for the clients.

Mr. Mir had anticipated these changes in Pakistan’s financial landscape. Therefore, given his prior experience in financial markets, he introduced financial market products and services in Pakistan under the banner of Harvest Group in 1994. He also founded the first Hong Kong–Pakistan joint venture firm, Harvest Topworth International.

It has since become a leading brokerage company in Pakistan, facilitating clients of international brokerage firms to trade in Forex, CFDs, and Futures markets.

The group, maintaining its focus on fintech integrations in developed markets, once again pioneered a first for Pakistan: an online trading terminal for commodities and futures trading, in collaboration with CMC Markets Plc, UK.
Harvest Topworth International signed an exclusive introducing brokerage agreement with CMC to market its then $100 million online trading software to CMC’s clients in Pakistan. These clients sought access to a broad range of diversified financial market products for trading, hedging, and speculation.
The firm provided services to CMC Markets UK Plc clients in Pakistan from 2006 to 2010. From 2010 to 2013, Harvest Topworth International had an agreement with Standard Vanguard Investment, New Zealand, to provide information and facilitation services to their clients.
