It is a new form of colonialism, but if the Pakistani ruling elite, and people of Pakistan are happy with this new relationship then no one from outside can help them.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Academic Paper from the year 2019 in the subject Business economics - Investment and Finance, grade: 95.0, GC University, language: English, abstract: This empirical study was conducted to find the impact of IMF credit on the economy of Pakistan. Amid of 2018, Pakistan, being a developing nation is facing the critical situation for which it is left with no option other than knocking the door of IMF for borrowing credit in order to reform the up speculated economic crises. However, the studies have shown the controversial effects of IMF credit and its programs on the economies. Many critics believed that the programs of IMF exert significant effects on the economy, though this study was conducted to find the impact of IMF credit programs on the economy of Pakistan. The results depicted that the acceptance of the null hypothesis and rejection of the alternative hypothesis. Thus, the finding is that there is no impact of IMF credit programs on economic growth (GDP) of Pakistan since 1971. This proves that Pakistan can invest their borrowed loan in profitable projects to prosper the economic growth. Pakistan, being a developing nation is facing the critical situation for which it is left with no option other than knocking the door of IMF for borrowing credit in order to reform the up speculated economic crises. Before approving the loan the government of Pakistan must convince the IMF for less harsh conditionality against the additional fund than its quota. However, it would be a challenging task to reach IMF to demand 300% more than its quota. So, it is significant to know that whether the government is consuming that loan in fruitful projects so that enough turnover would generate from the economy to pay back the acquired loan. Unfortunately, despite of the global growth objective of IMF, around 11 major conditions imposed by IMF including: excise duty on service as well as agricultural sector, less expenditure in development programs of public sectors, currency devaluation, ceasing gas and electricity subsidy, uniformity in the rates of dollar exchange rate and interbank, ceasing of financial intervention in stock market of Pakistan, raise markup rate on bank and bank transactions, ceasing of non- development expenditure under budget of defense, non-allowance of supplementary grants to the government sectors, reduction in the non-developing expenses of ministries.

Download or read book Global Waves of Debt written by M. Ayhan Kose and published by World Bank Publications. This book was released on 2021-03-03 with total page 403 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The global economy has experienced four waves of rapid debt accumulation over the past 50 years. The first three debt waves ended with financial crises in many emerging market and developing economies. During the current wave, which started in 2010, the increase in debt in these economies has already been larger, faster, and broader-based than in the previous three waves. Current low interest rates mitigate some of the risks associated with high debt. However, emerging market and developing economies are also confronted by weak growth prospects, mounting vulnerabilities, and elevated global risks. A menu of policy options is available to reduce the likelihood that the current debt wave will end in crisis and, if crises do take place, will alleviate their impact.

Book excerpt: This book focuses on the implementation of the China-Pakistan Economic Corridor (CPEC), a multi-billion-dollar infrastructure development project intended to connect Asia with Europe, the Middle East and Africa. By introducing a new analytical approach to the study of economic corridors, it gauges the anticipated economic and geopolitical impacts on the region and discusses whether the CPEC will serve as a pioneer project for future regional cooperation between and integration of sub-national regions such as Balochistan, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, the Federally Administered Tribal Areas, and Gilgit-Baltistan. Further, it explores the interests, expectations and policy approaches of both Chinese and Pakistani local and central governments with regard to the CPEC’s implementation. Given its scope, the book will appeal to regional and spatial sciences scholars, as well as social scientists interested in the regional impacts of economic corridors. It also offers valuable information for policymakers in countries participating in the Belt-and-Road Initiative or other Chinese-supported development projects.

Download or read book The Motives to Borrow written by Antonio Fatás and published by International Monetary Fund. This book was released on 2019-05-10 with total page 53 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Governments issue debt for good and bad reasons. While the good reasons—intertemporal tax-smoothing, fiscal stimulus, and asset management—can explain some of the increases in public debt in recent years, they cannot account for all of the observed changes. Bad reasons for borrowing are driven by political failures associated with intergenerational transfers, strategic manipulation, and common pool problems. These political failures are a major cause of overborrowing though budgetary institutions and fiscal rules can play a role in mitigating governments’ tendencies to overborrow. While it is difficult to establish a clear causal link from high public debt to low output growth, it is likely that some countries pay a price—in terms of lower growth and greater output volatility—for excessive debt accumulation.
