In a significant turn of events, Pakistan’s current account has achieved a surplus for the first time in six months, signaling a positive shift in the country’s economic trajectory. According to the State Bank of Pakistan’s spokesperson, the national income has surpassed expenditures, contributing to this newfound financial stability.

This development comes on the heels of a remarkable 64% reduction in the annual current account deficit, offering a welcomed respite for Pakistan’s economy. Notably, November witnessed a surplus of $9 million, a stark contrast to the $184 million deficit recorded in October.

Analyzing the broader financial landscape, the first five months of the ongoing financial year showcase a noteworthy transformation, with the current account deficit narrowing to $1.16 billion. This stands in sharp contrast to the previous financial year, where the same period registered a deficit of $3.26 billion. The current surplus reflects a resilient economic recovery, instilling optimism among analysts and stakeholders alike.
