Rising Pakistan Smart Economic Hub
As of May 2025, Pakistan’s economy is showing encouraging signs of recovery and stabilization. The GDP growth for FY25 is projected at 2.68%, with third-quarter growth recorded at a steady 2.4%. This improvement is largely driven by a resurgence in agricultural output and an uptick in services, including trade and transportation. The agriculture sector posted a notable performance with a 1.18% growth, helped by better yields in sugarcane and wheat. These gains indicate the resilience of the real economy despite prior macroeconomic challenges.
Inflation has fallen sharply to a multi-decade low of 0.7% as of March 2025, creating space for policy easing. In response, the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) cut its key policy rate by 100 basis points.
On the external side, Pakistan’s current account recorded a surplus in Q1 and Q2 FY25, supported by strong remittance inflows and a rebound in exports. The country’s foreign exchange reserves have risen to over $9 billion, helped by inflows from the IMF’s Extended Fund Facility and improved bilateral support. Investor sentiment has also strengthened, reflected in the narrowing of sovereign bond spreads and improved performance on the Pakistan Stock Exchange, where the KSE-100 index has shown a year-to-date gain of over 12%. These developments signal a cautiously optimistic outlook for the remainder of the fiscal year.
