IMF advises Pakistan to open up economy

IMF has proposed that Pakistan should open up its economy to the rest of the world by lowering restrictions on imports and signing new FTAs – recommendations that do not fall under the core ambit of the $ 6Bn loan program. The IMF also proposed that Pakistan should spend PKR 6.2Tn on Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) over the next 10 years. The IMF made these recommendations to a joint sitting of standing committees on finance of the National Assembly and Senate.
