The International Monetary Fund (IMF) mission is scheduled to visit Pakistan on September 25 to assess progress under the $7 billion Extended Fund Facility (EFF), Finance Ministry sources confirmed.
The delegation is expected to stay until October 10, with arrangements and protocol discussions currently being finalised.
Review Under Extended Fund Facility
During the visit, the IMF will review Pakistan’s economic indicators and reform measures. A successful review could unlock the next $1 billion tranche of the programme.
Signed in September 2024, the 37-month EFF has already disbursed over $2 billion to Pakistan in two instalments.
Climate Finance Agreement
Alongside the EFF, Pakistan has also reached a deal with the IMF under the Resilience and Sustainability Facility (RSF). Through this programme, the country will receive $1.3 billion over 28 months to support climate adaptation and sustainability initiatives.
