Описание: Watch On My Radar with Kamran Khan, Mon to Fri at 8:03 PM on ARY News!

Pakistan’s privatization drive is moving into the power sector, with 12 major Pakistani and international investors expressing interest in acquiring Faisalabad Electric Supply Company (FESCO).

The potential bidders include eight major Pakistani business groups, three Turkish investors and one Chinese company, with investors considering stakes ranging from 51% to potentially full ownership and management control.

In this episode of On My Radar, we examine:

• Who is competing for FESCO?
• Why are major Pakistani, Turkish and Chinese investors interested?
• What happens next in the qualification, Virtual Data Room and due-diligence process?
• Why are FESCO, GEPCO and IESCO being targeted for privatization?
• What are investors demanding in terms of tariff visibility, regulatory protection and operational freedom?
• Why is the government proposing a rupee-based return rather than dollar-based returns?
• Could successful privatization of these three DISCOs fundamentally change Pakistan’s electricity distribution sector?

With FESCO, GEPCO and IESCO collectively serving more than 14 million consumers, their privatization could become one of the biggest tests of Pakistan’s broader power-sector reform strategy.

Muhammad Ali, Adviser to the Prime Minister on Privatization and Chairman Privatization Commission, explains the government’s strategy and what comes next.
