The transferable part is covered in the above highlighted area, nothing to worry about that, but have they mentioned your husbands name in the letter.

the letter is a standard as per Pakistani banks, where bank managers cover them self in taking no liabilities.

as per UKBA the third party bank letter should clearly state the applicants name on there letter headed letter to UKBA/BHC etc

At least a line stating in the above letter should mention your husbands name.

Say like **

Mr.Your Husband has 200,000 available from the above mentioned third party for investment in the united kingdom on deposit with this financial institution.

Well that's fine declarations are the easy part , mainly bank letters are tricky, its thirdparty's bank account and UKBA needs applicants name on it.

Some time they become real silly and may react otherwise, have a look at this link.

As I mentioned that it should at least state a single line in the above letter mentioning your husbands name against the money available to him.

He can always make a new letter from the bank with alterations and send it with a covering letter to the case worker(UKBA) explaining the situation and ask him to ignore the first bank letter which doesn't clearly mention his name and consider this letter for point scoring.

At most times the case workers do accept such documents either through mail or fax but he should get in touch with the case worker first then send the letter, hence they will have the understanding.

Or

You can always wait and do nothing and hope for the best.

good luck.
