Foreign investment conditions in Pakistan are continuously improving, largely due to the effective facilitation provided by the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC).
The government has eased the restrictions on profit repatriation for foreign companies that had been in place for the past three years, further strengthening investor confidence.
According to the State Bank of Pakistan, profit repatriation by foreign companies reached 752 million dollars during the first quarter of the current fiscal year, which is 86% higher compared to previous years.
In the energy and financial sectors, profit repatriation amounted to 186 million and 183.9 million dollars respectively.
Experts believe that Pakistan’s stable economic momentum, investment-friendly environment, and policy measures taken by SIFC have played a vital role in promoting foreign investment.
