The Pakistan Institute of Development Economics (PIDE) has launched an ambitious reform strategy, “ISLAAH: Immediate Reform Agenda- IMF and Beyond,” to propel Pakistan towards economic stability and growth amid its looming financial crises.
This initiative, embodying the ideals of rethink, reform, and revive, responds to Pakistan’s urgent need for external financing exceeding $120 billion over the next five years, as highlighted by the recent IMF Report, said a press release issued here Tuesday.
Commenting on the reform strategy, the Vice-Chancellor Pakistan Institute of Development Economics (PIDE), Dr Nadeem ul Haque, emphasized the need for a comprehensive approach to address Pakistan’s economic challenges. PIDE has outlined an agenda aimed at tackling key areas such as regulatory modernization, tax reform, market liberalization, energy sector efficiency, and improvements in agriculture and banking, he added.
