Earlier in the day. State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) Governor Jameel Ahmad said that Pakistan’s economy has moved onto a firmer footing, with growth expected to range between 3.25% and 4.25% in FY26.
He noted that Pakistan had weathered severe economic turbulence since 2022. Foreign exchange reserves, which had plunged to $2.8 billion in early 2023, now stand at $14.3 billion.
The current account deficit has narrowed, and remittances have climbed above $38 billion in FY25, largely due to a shift from informal to formal channels, he said.
