Pakistan’s economy has regained a measure of stability as coordinated monetary and fiscal efforts begin to pay off, said State Bank of Pakistan (SBP) Governor Jameel Ahmad, crediting policy discipline for reducing inflation and rebuilding the country’s external and fiscal buffers, according to an official SBP press release issued on Monday.
Speaking as chief guest at the 22nd Annual Excellence Awards hosted by the CFA Society Pakistan, Ahmad said the country has achieved “significant macroeconomic stability” through “coordinated and prudent” policymaking.
He highlighted the role of capital markets in sustaining economic progress, noting that Pakistan’s private sector continues to face a financing gap that can be addressed through stronger market infrastructure, improved governance, and the introduction of alternative investment products. Expanding digital access, simplifying onboarding procedures, and enhancing transparency, he said, would further strengthen public confidence in the financial system.
The SBP Governor also commended CFA Society Pakistan for its contribution to ethical investment practices and professional excellence, underscoring the importance of such efforts in promoting inclusive and sustainable growth.
Paul Moody, Managing Director for Global Partnerships and Client Solutions at the CFA Institute, joined the event virtually and praised the Society’s “tireless efforts” in raising professional standards in Pakistan’s investment community.
CFA Society Pakistan President Muhammad Asim, CFA, congratulated award winners, calling the ceremony a celebration of “professionalism, integrity, and leadership” in the financial sector.
The CFA Society Pakistan is affiliated with the CFA Institute, a global body of over 190,000 charterholders committed to promoting ethical finance and investor protection.
