$1.6 Billion in FDI: A Sign of Growing Investor Confidence

Written by Saliha Aziz | Mar 18, 2025 9:00:00 AM

Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) in Pakistan has seen a 41% growth in the first eight months of the fiscal year 2025. The State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) reported that it grew to $1.618 billion. This significant increase in investment signals a strong economy that is backed by multiple international financial institutions and foreign investors.

Therefore, the investment landscape in Pakistan is becoming highly attractive. The impact of growing capital inflows can be seen in a lot of sectors–one of them being real estate.

At One Homes, we have positioned ourselves to offer the best value to overseas investors who want to invest back in their country. Our focus is on creating real estate that is built on global standards to offer investors secure, high-return investments in a rapidly expanding market. More than that, we bring in partners from around the world to build a luxury real estate landscape that was missing in the market. 

 

Key Players Driving FDI Growth

China:

Chinese investment in Pakistan has surged by 285%. It has reached $661.8 million, which accounts for 41% of total FDI. The increase is  a result of strong bilateral ties and China’s commitment to large-scale infrastructure and energy projects.

United Kingdom:

The UK emerged as the second-largest investor. They have bought in $167 million net FDI in the past 8 months, contributing 10% to the total share. This is a 5% increase compared to last year and points to sustained investor interest from British Pakistanis and firms.

Why FDI Growth Matters for Real Estate

The property market is the first to see growth as a result of growing foreign capital. The demand can already be seen climbing since there is increased investment in infrastructure, energy, and financial services.

A stable investment climate encourages more overseas Pakistanis to invest in real estate. With the right policies in place, the sector is primed for strong capital appreciation and rental yields.
