The International Monetary Fund has acknowledged improving economic conditions, saying recent policy steps helped stabilize key indicators before its upcoming assessment mission.
An IMF delegation is scheduled to arrive in Pakistan on February 25 to conduct crucial program reviews evaluating reform progress and macroeconomic performance.
The visit will cover the third review under the Extended Fund Facility and the second review under the Resilience and Sustainability Facility arrangements.
IMF Director of Communications Julie Kozack stated that policy implementation under the program has supported stabilization and strengthened overall fiscal and financial discipline.
According to the Fund, Pakistan posted a primary fiscal surplus of 1.3 percent of GDP during fiscal year 2025, meeting targets comfortably.
The IMF also noted inflation remained contained and the country achieved its first current account surplus in fourteen years, signaling stronger external stability.
