  • Finance Minister Ishaq Dar's Keynote Address on Future of Pakistan Economy at Investment Conference, Islamabad 28Th October 2014
    Finance Minister Ishaq Dar's Keynote Address on Future of Pakistan Economy at Investment Conference, Islamabad 28th October 2014 Ladies & Gentlemen, Assalam Alaikum and Good Morning! In June 2013, the smooth transition of power from one elected government to another elected one was indeed unprecedented in Pakistan’s history. This led to a new beginning for a country which has seen too many martial laws and intermittent disruptions of democratic orders. The unequivocal verdict given by the people of Pakistan in a most transparent, free and fair General Election 2013 in favour of the leadership of Mian Muhammad Nawaz Sharif and his party PML(N) has seen the transformation of the country into new dimensions of economic development. We have promised to the nation that we will not disappoint it. Pakistan today is way ahead of where it was in June 2013 - just 16 months back. Challenges faced by the government When we took the responsibility of the government, the economy was weak and fragile. The growth rate had averaged less than 3% since 2008-09 - significantly below our potential. Inflation had averaged around 12% per annum in five years while national reserves dropped below US$ 8 billion (SBP US$ 2.8 billion in February 2014). International predictions were that Pakistan will default in June 2014. Circular debt of Rs. 503 billion was crippling the power sector and the economy. Investment-to-GDP ratio was declining continuously and had reached 12.6%, tax-to-GDP ratio had declined to 8.5% while the projected fiscal deficit for 2012-13 was 8.8%.
