ISLAMABAD:
Pakistan is expected to receive $200 million under the IMF’s Resilience and Sustainability Fund (RSF) programme.
The IMF board is likely to take up Pakistan-related issues in an important meeting scheduled for Friday (today), sources said.
The development comes amid progress in discussions on climate finance during global financial meetings in Washington, where participating countries and financial institutions emphasized practical measures to address climate change.
According to sources, Pakistan presented its position on climate action financing, budget priorities and resource allocation, highlighting the need for greater international financial support for environmental and climate-related projects.
Consultations are also underway on increasing global financial assistance for climate initiatives in developing countries.
Sources said the government had decided to further accelerate institutional coordination to address environmental challenges and was considering giving higher priority to climate policy in the national budget and resource distribution framework.
