Pakistan

According to Bloomberg analysts, Pakistan’s economic growth is expected to accelerate in the H2 FY25, driven by loans from the IMF bailout program. Analysts forecast GDP growth of 2.6% in fiscal 2025 and 3.9% in 2026, supported by lower inflation and rate cuts. The country secured a 37-month USD 7 bln loan deal from the IMF in September, easing default concerns and boosting investors’ confidence. The outlook assumes that the program stays on track.
