Last week, it was reported that Pakistan recorded a current account surplus of $2.1 billion in the fiscal year 2024–25, according to the State Bank of Pakistan (SBP).
According to details surfaced on Friday, this marked the first annual surplus in 14 years. This compared to a deficit of $2 billion in the preceding fiscal year.
The central bank reported a monthly surplus of $330 million in June 2025, a notable shift from the $500 million deficit recorded in June 2024.
Experts have attributed the improvement to record-high remittances.
