pakistan ECONOMIC OVERVIEW
Decades of
internal political disputes and low levels of foreign investment have led to
slow growth and underdevelopment in Pakistan. Agriculture accounts for more
than one-fifth of output and two-fifths of employment. Textiles account for
most of Pakistan's export earnings, and Pakistan's failure to expand a viable
export base for other manufactures has left the country vulnerable to shifts in
world demand. Official unemployment is under 6%, but this fails to capture the true
picture, because much of the economy is informal and underemployment remains
high. Over the past few years, low growth and high inflation, led by a spurt in
food prices, have increased the amount of poverty - the UN Human Development
Report estimated poverty in 2011 at almost 50% of the population. Inflation has
worsened the situation, climbing from 7.7% in 2007 to almost 12% for 2011,
before declining to 10% in 2012. As a result of political and economic
instability, the Pakistani rupee has depreciated more than 40% since 2007. The
government agreed to an International Monetary Fund Standby Arrangement in
November 2008 in response to a balance of payments crisis. Although the economy
has stabilized since the crisis, it has failed to recover. Foreign investment
has not returned, due to investor concerns related to governance, energy,
security, and a slow-down in the global economy. Remittances from overseas
workers, averaging about $1 billion a month since March 2011, remain a bright
spot for Pakistan. However, after a small current account surplus in fiscal
year 2011 (July 2010/June 2011), Pakistan's current account turned to deficit
in fiscal year 2012, spurred by higher prices for imported oil and lower prices
for exported cotton. Pakistan remains stuck in a low-income, low-growth trap,
with growth averaging about 3% per year from 2008 to 2012. Pakistan must
address long standing issues related to government revenues and energy
production in order to spur the amount of economic growth that will be necessary
to employ its growing and rapidly urbanizing population, more than half of
which is under 22. Other long term challenges include expanding investment in
education and healthcare, adapting to the effects of climate change and natural
disasters, and reducing dependence on foreign donors.
