After lengthy consideration, the existing government has finally decided to fulfil most of the International Monetary Fund’s (IMF) requests, raising the chance of the country “getting back on track economically” and receiving the next IMF loan tranche.
For the second day in a row, talks between the IMF and Pakistan proceeded. Finance Secretary Hamed Yaqoob Sheikh, Federal Board of Revenue Chairman Asim Ahmad, and State Bank of Pakistan acting Governor Dr Murtaza Syed are among the Pakistani negotiators.
