Islamabad:
Pakistan and the International Monetary Fund (IMF) have successfully concluded talks over a new financial support package. Following the Executive Board’s approval, Pakistan is set to receive the next tranche of $1.2 billion.
According to the Ministry of Finance, the agreement has been finalized at the technical level and will soon be submitted for formal approval. Once cleared, the funds will be transferred to Pakistan’s foreign exchange reserves, strengthening the country’s external position.
Officials stated that the agreement marks a significant step toward economic stability, fiscal discipline, and structural reforms aimed at restoring growth and investor confidence.
Finance Minister said:
“This agreement represents a renewed sense of stability and confidence for Pakistan’s economy. Our focus remains on reducing the fiscal deficit and ensuring sustainable growth in the coming months.”
Economic analysts believe the resumption of the IMF program will help stabilize the rupee, restore market confidence, and encourage fresh investment in the country.
