Pakistan deepens economic ties with France, highlighting reforms, investment opportunities and growing bilateral trade cooperation.
Pakistan is strengthening its economic engagement with France as ongoing structural reforms improve investor confidence and macroeconomic stability. Senior Pakistani officials highlighted progress on key reforms including privatisation, energy sector restructuring, and tax system digitisation, positioning the country as an increasingly attractive destination for foreign investment.
During high-level discussions, both sides emphasised expanding bilateral trade, investment flows, and technical cooperation across sectors such as infrastructure, energy, and financial systems. Pakistan underscored its commitment to fiscal discipline and economic stabilisation under reform programmes, while France expressed interest in supporting development initiatives and exploring new business opportunities.
Key stakeholders including Ali Pervaiz Malik and French Ambassador Nicolas Galey reaffirmed the importance of long-term collaboration, noting that Pakistan’s improving economic indicators, including stabilising inflation and rising foreign exchange reserves, are creating a more predictable investment environment.
The renewed engagement reflects Pakistan’s broader strategy to deepen ties with European partners, attract foreign capital, and accelerate sustainable economic growth through reforms and international cooperation.
