Latest Pakistan Political Economic News

The World Bank trimmed Pakistan’s growth projection for FY22, from 3.5% to 3.4%. At the same time, inflation for the new fiscal year was expected to rise, with a rise in energy rates and higher international oil prices.

 

This trimming came in the World Bank report, ā€œThe latest South Asia Economic Focus titled Shifting Gears: Digitization and Services-Led Developmentā€.
