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-fourth of output and two-fifths of
employment. Textiles account for most of Pakistan's export earnings, and
Pakistan's failure to diversify its exportshas left the country vulnerable to
shifts in world demand. Official unemployment was 6.9% in 2014, but this fails
to capture the true picture, because much of the economy is informal and
underemployment remains high. Pakistan’s human development continues to lag
behind most of the region.. As a result of political and macroeconomic
instability, the Pakistani rupee has depreciated more than 40% since 2007. The
government agreed to an International Monetary Fund Standby Arrangement in
November 2008 to preventa balance of payments crisis, but the IMF ended the
Arrangement early because of Pakistan’s failure to implement required reforms.
The economy has stabilized, it continues to underperform and foreign investment
has not returned to levels seen during themid-2000’s, due to investor concerns
related to governance, electricity shortages, , and a slow-down in the global
economy. Remittances from overseas workers, averaging more than$1 billion a
month, remain a bright spot for Pakistan. After a small current account surplus
in fiscal year 2011 (July 2010/June 2011), Pakistan's current account turned to
a deficit where it remained through 2014, spurred by higher prices for imported
oil and lower prices for exported cotton. In September 2013, after facing
balance of payments concerns, Pakistan entered into a three-year, $6.7 billion
IMF Extended Fund Facility. The Sharif government has since made modest
progress implementing fiscal and energy reforms, and in December 2014 the IMF
described Pakistan’s progress as “broadly on track.” Pakistan remains stuck in
a low-income, low-growth trap, with growth averaging about 3.5% per year from
2008 to 2014. Pakistan must address long standing issues related to government
revenues and the electricity and natural gas sectorsin 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.
