International Monetary Fund (IMF) and Its Impact on the Economy of Pakistan: An Analysis of 2013-2023
This research paper investigates the profound influence of the International Monetary Fund on the economy of Pakistan from 2013 to 2022. Pakistan has been engaged with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) since 1958. Over this period, Pakistan has entered multiple agreements with the IMF, shaping its economic policies significantly. This study employs a comprehensive analysis of IMF programs and their impact either negative or positive on Pakistan's economic landscape. By employing a case study approach, historical analysis, quantitative assessments, and qualitative perspectives, this paper aims to unveil the intricate dynamics between the IMF's directives and Pakistan's economy. It explores how IMF policies, often linked to loan agreements, have influenced Pakistan's autonomy in economic policymaking, impacted sectors like education and healthcare, and shaped the nation's fiscal policies. The research seeks to offer insights into the multifaceted relationship between international economic organizations, particularly the IMF, and the economy of Pakistan.
