Additionally, the government decided to allow the export of furnace oil while putting a stop on further import of the fuel to help ease off surplus of refineries. Also, cement sales fell 7.1%YoY in November due to demand slowdown in construction and development activities. Moreover, sugar mills in Punjab started crushing after reaching an understanding with the government. Furthermore, the federal cabinet approved a supplementary grant of PKR25.7bn for subsidized gas to five zerorated export sectors in Punjab. On the macro front, country s foreign exchange reserves decreased to USD14.0bn from USD14.6bn, down by 4%WoW owing to external debt payments. Also, annual consumer price inflation (CPI) clocked in at 6.5%YoY in Nov 18 which was below market expectations as prices of perishable food items saw a steep decline. Moreover, Pakistan s outstanding foreign debt and liabilities rose by 13%YoY in 1QFY19 to USD96.7bn, as compared to USD85.6bn in SPLY. Furthermore, Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) has to collect an enormous amount of PKR586bn in the current month to meets its half yearly tax collection target of PKR1.96tn. Outlook Soaring twin deficits and depreciation of PKR against USD due to depleting forex reserves have cornered Pakistan with likelihood of another IMF bailout seeming more apparent. While Pakistan has formerly rejected IMF conditions for the package, further delay will only dampen the sentiments of the investors. Moreover, the clock is ticking on the implementation of 27 actionable plans of FATF that Pakistan has to comply by Dec 15, 2018, which if Pakistan fails to achieve may have serious ramifications for the economy. 2
