Leading International Economist: Pakistan is BACK!

14 May, 2024
Table of Contents

    In the wake of significant political and economic upheavals, Pakistan stands at a promising juncture. Renowned investment banker and advisor, Kurt Davis Jr., member of the Council on Foreign Relations, recently offered a comprehensive analysis of the current economic landscape in Pakistan, highlighting the transformative strides under Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif’s administration.

     

    Kurt Davis Jr. on Pakistan’s Economic Revival:

     

    Just over a year ago, Pakistan grappled with a landscape of economic uncertainty, compounded by domestic rioting. Today marks the one-year anniversary of those events, providing a reflective backdrop for assessing the country’s economic trajectory. Davis notes, “The government of Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif has remarkably jolted the country’s economic malaise, injecting new vigour into Pakistan’s investment potential and trajectory.”

     

     

    One of the standout instances of renewed confidence in Pakistan’s economy is the recent visit from a Saudi business delegation, led by Saudi Assistant Minister of Investment Ibrahim Al-Mubarak. This visit, involving representatives from 30 to 35 Saudi companies, has been pivotal. “These discussions could significantly enhance Pakistan’s stability and prospects for growth,” Davis highlighted, pointing to the positive reception and potential fruitful outcomes of the engagements.

     

    Davis emphasizes the strategic importance of Aramco’s decision to acquire a significant stake in Gas & Oil Pakistan Ltd. “This not only demonstrates Saudi Arabia’s confidence in Pakistan’s energy sector but also paves the way for enhanced collaboration in this critical industry,” he explained. Moreover, Pakistan’s efforts to attract Japanese investment in its burgeoning electric automotive industry signify a commitment to diversifying its economy and embracing sustainable technologies.

     

    Under Prime Minister Sharif’s leadership, Pakistan has secured key loans from international financial bodies, including a significant package from the International Monetary Fund. “Last year’s unexpectedly generous $3 billion short-term financial package from the IMF, and the impending release of an additional $1.1 billion, underscore the confidence international financial institutions have in Pakistan’s economic reforms,” Davis stated.

     

    Kurt Davis Jr. underscores that while challenges remain, the trajectory is clear. “Pakistan’s capacity for growth and resilience is being recognized on the global stage. The recent developments in foreign investment and strategic international relationships offer a robust pathway to not only revive but also strengthen Pakistan’s position in the global market,” he concluded.
