IMF Slaps 11 New Conditions on Pakistan

  • On May 18, 2025, the IMF introduced 11 additional requirements that Pakistan must meet to qualify for the next portion of its bailout funding.
  • These measures come amid escalating India-Pakistan tensions and include the requirement that Pakistan’s legislature endorse a budget totaling Rs 17.6 trillion by June 2025.
  • Additional conditions include lifting import restrictions on used cars older than three years, increasing electricity bill surcharges, and publishing a governance action plan.
  • The IMF cautioned that if the ongoing tensions between India and Pakistan continue or worsen, they may jeopardize the program’s fiscal stability, external finances, and reform targets.
  • With these conditions, Pakistan's bailout program now has 50 requirements, indicating increased pressure to meet fiscal and reform targets amid geopolitical risks.
