鈥淗e said the country is now moving toward genuine economic improvement and poverty alleviation,鈥� the state broadcaster said
Pakistan has been suffering from a prolonged economic crisis that brought the country to the brink of a sovereign default in 2023 before a last-gasp bailout package from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) helped avert it. Since then, Pakistan has undertaken painful financial reforms mandated by the IMF to reform its economy. 
Pakistan also formed the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) in June 2023 to fast-track decisions related to international investment in its priority sectors of minerals, livestock, agriculture, tourism, IT and others.
