“IMF Reached Out To Pakistan's Political Parties Due To Severity Of Challenge” | Khaqan Najeeb

Описание: In a ‘rare’ move, ostensibly to seek assurances from political parties for a new lender-supported programme, a team from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) held meetings with the PTI and PPP leadership to gain support for the implementation of the $3 billion standby arrangement.

The meetings came almost a week before a meeting of the IMF executive board will review the $3 billion arrangement for Pakistan on July 12, after a staff-level pact was finalised.

Pakistan was absent from an earlier schedule released in June, igniting speculation that the IMF was not going to release funds from an earlier programme that expired on June 30.

On Friday, IMF Resident Representative Ester Perez Ruiz met with the economic teams of the PPP and the opposition PTI.
