ISLAMABAD (Dunya News) - The Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) and the government’s proactive policies have played a key role in creating a conducive environment for foreign investment in Pakistan.
According to data from the State Bank of Pakistan, profit repatriation by foreign investors reached $1.7 billion during the first seven months of the 2025–26 fiscal year.
The first seven months of the current fiscal year also saw a 27.92% increase in profit repatriation by foreign companies. In the energy and financial sectors, repatriated profits totaled $400.19 million and $371.33 million, respectively.
