According to a recent report by the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP), Pakistan’s foreign direct investment (FDI) has surpassed the $1 billion milestone in the first five months of the current fiscal year (FY25). This expansion suggests a more stable economic climate and a resurgence of investor confidence.
According to the SBP, foreign direct investment (FDI) increased by an astounding 31% between July and November of FY25, from $856 million to $1.124 billion. This amounts to a $268 million gain. During the time, there were $1.625 billion in total FDI inflows and $502 million in outflows.
This increase was mostly due to Chinese investments, which now account for the majority of FDI in Pakistan. Between July and November of FY25, China made $469.
