Federal Finance Minister Mohammad Aurangzeb emphasized the government’s commitment to achieving sustainable economic growth with the support of the IMF’s mid-term program.
He said this during a meeting with a delegation from the British Board Special Investment Facilitation Council in Islamabad.
The delegation expressed a keen interest in investing in Pakistan’s electricity transmission system.
The FinMin highlighted Pakistan’s positive economic indicators, noting that the country’s economic growth is projected to reach 3.6% in the current financial year.
He reported a decrease in inflation and an increase in global investor confidence, as well as rising foreign exchange reserves and remittances.
Mr Aurangzeb also mentioned that Pakistan successfully completed a nine-month IMF program last year and is currently implementing reforms in state-owned enterprises, including their privatization.
He encouraged the British Board to engage with the Special Investment Facilitation Council to explore investment opportunities further.
