IMF Transfers $1.2 Billion to Pakistan After Board Approval

Funds bolster reserves as the programme proceeds under strict reform conditions.

Overview

  • The State Bank of Pakistan confirmed the full $1.2 billion has been received and credited following this week's IMF Executive Board review.
  • The tranche consists of $1.0 billion from the Extended Fund Facility and $200 million from the climate-focused Resilience and Sustainability Facility.
  • IMF assessments cited easing inflation, stronger foreign-exchange reserves and improved investor confidence in support of the disbursement.
  • Continued financing remains tied to reforms in public finances and the energy sector, plus climate measures and privatisation steps such as progress on PIA.
  • The decision keeps Pakistan’s IMF programmes on track, bringing total disbursements under the EFF and RSF to $3.3 billion, according to officials.
