Pakistan Exports Slow Ahead of Eurobond Payment

Pakistan Exports Slow Ahead of Oil Payments and $1bn Eurobond Repayment, Says Tresmark

Pakistan’s export inflows have slowed over the past two weeks ahead of major external payments, including a heavy oil import bill and over $1 billion in Eurobond repayments due after Eid-ul-Fitr, according to Tresmark. The report says strong Ramadan remittances and managed import payments are helping maintain stable forex liquidity, keeping the rupee range-bound in the short term. However, risks remain in the medium term as external financing pressures, higher inflation expectations, and potential slowdown in remittance inflows could weigh on Pakistan’s economic outlook.
