A crucial round of virtual talks is taking place today between Pakistan’s economic team and a delegation of the International Monetary Fund to review key reform areas and fiscal management under the ongoing programme.

Sources said the discussions will focus on structural reforms, revenue measures, and strategies to maintain macroeconomic stability. A detailed review is also expected regarding the government’s privatization plan for the current fiscal year, including updates on the status of major entities such as Pakistan International Airlines and other public sector institutions.

Officials added that matters related to Sovereign Wealth Funds and the implementation of the State-Owned Enterprises Act will also be part of the agenda. Authorities aim to strengthen governance, improve transparency, and enhance efficiency in state-run organizations.

During the session, Pakistan’s economic team is expected to present a strategy to bridge the fiscal gap for the ongoing financial year. The plan reportedly includes revenue enhancement steps and expenditure control measures to ensure compliance with IMF-supported economic targets.
