In a separate development, Pakistan’s current account surplus increased significantly to $1.2 billion in March 2025, a 230% rise compared to the same month last year.
The country’s advisor to the finance minister attributed this growth to lower oil prices and record remittances, expecting the current account to remain in surplus until June 2025 and potentially beyond. This development is likely to boost investor confidence in the country
