In a significant development for Pakistan’s struggling economy, the government has reached a staff-level agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) for a new $7 billion Extended Fund Facility (EFF). The agreement, announced today in Islamabad, includes:

Reforms in tax collection and energy pricing

Improved governance and transparency

A commitment to controlling inflation and exchange rate stability

The new deal will be subject to IMF board approval in June, but officials are optimistic.

Why It’s Trending: The agreement could help stabilize Pakistan’s economy and avoid default, a key concern among investors and citizens alike.
