Global Confidence in Pakistan’s Economic Reforms Grows Stronger

Pakistan’s economy is showing steady improvement as economic reforms and effective government policies continue to strengthen financial stability and boost global confidence.

Federal Finance Minister Senator Muhammad Aurangzeb met a delegation from S&P Global Ratings to discuss Pakistan’s economic situation, credit profile, and ongoing reform agenda.

During the meeting, S&P Global Ratings appreciated the government’s commitment to economic reforms, fiscal discipline, debt sustainability, and maintaining economic stability.

The finance minister told the delegation that Pakistan’s key economic indicators have improved under the 2026-27 federal budget. He said lower inflation, rising foreign exchange reserves, a stronger external sector, and growing investor confidence have helped stabilize the economy.

He also highlighted that a lower fiscal deficit, a record primary surplus, and better debt management have further strengthened the country’s financial position.

The delegation was briefed on ongoing reforms in taxation, the energy sector, state-owned enterprises, privatization, governance, and public financial management.

The government said that continued economic reforms and fiscal discipline are helping strengthen Pakistan’s economy and increasing international confidence in the country.
