Pakistan to Offer Foreign Currency Bond, Hires Commercial Banks: Report

News 18  

The International Monetary Fund last week approved a $ 500 million disbursement to Pakistan for budget support after the IMF Executive Board completed delayed reviews of Pakistan’s $6 billion loan program. The South Asian nation is now ready to offer a foreign currency bond and has hired commercial banks, according to a report by Bloomberg. The IMF said in a statement that the latest payment brought total disbursements under the Extended Fund Facility to $2 billion since the program was first approved in July 2019. “The Pakistani authorities have continued to make satisfactory progress under the Fund-supported program, which has been an important policy anchor during an unprecedented period,” IMF Deputy Managing Director Antoinette Sayeh said in a statement.
