\nHe advocated for the policy rate to be reduced to a single-digit figure to alleviate the financial burden on the business community and stimulate economic activity.
\nAnjum Nisar highlighted that the tight monetary policy, combined with the government\u2019s significant domestic borrowing, has left minimal room for business growth.
\nHe stressed the urgent need for the government to freeze both domestic and foreign borrowing and to devise a comprehensive strategy to showcase Pakistan\u2019s economic potential to international investors.
\nOn this occasion, he condemned the central bank, stating the policy rate should be further reduced. In the budget, relief should be given to exports so that exports can be increased. In the last one month, only 3.5 billion dollars of remittances have come, which can be increased further.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
