Pakistan Encouraged to Lead Global Debt Reform Amid Growing Financial Challenges
Pakistan has been urged to lead reforms in the global financial system amid rising debt pressures threatening developing countries' economic stability. With its upcoming chairmanship of the IMF-World Bank Boards of Governors in 2027, Pakistan has an opportunity to advocate for changes. Global debt reached a record $348 trillion by 2025, with many low-income countries facing debt distress. Pakistan narrowly avoided default in 2023, facing low foreign reserves and high inflation. Current international debt-relief mechanisms are criticized for inefficiency.
