Share on FacebookShare on Twitter

In a significant development, Pakistan has successfully reached a staff-level agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for a stand-by arrangement worth $3 billion. The announcement states that the agreement is now pending approval by the IMF Executive Board, which is scheduled to convene in mid-July.

The primary objective of this agreement is to relieve the pressure on Pakistan’s external payments, while also enhancing funding for the social sector. Additionally, the agreement aims to bolster tax revenue in the country. The resulting increase in tax revenue is expected to contribute to public development funding and promote fiscal discipline within Pakistan. Furthermore, the agreement will facilitate energy reforms and permit the market to determine the exchange rate through calculated adjustments.
