Expressing delight over the garnering of a record current account surplus in November, Prime Minister Muhammad Shehbaz Sharif noted that in November 2024, Pakistan’s current account surplus rose to $729 million the highest in any month in the last ten years. An immensely positive indicator for the national economy.

Such a success, Shehbaz attributed, was due to the decline in the policy rate instituted by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP), a marginal decline in the inflation rate, and effective economic policies made by the government. Thus, he added, it will raise the image of Pakistan in the international economic marketplace and grow, hence, local and foreign investors’ confidence in the economy of the country.
The Prime Minister has congratulated Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb and Minister of State for Finance Ali Pervaiz Malik along with the whole government economic team who worked hard to attain this financial goal.
