In an effort to improve Pakistan’s economic ties and draw in foreign investment, Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb has started a three-day official trip to the UK. His agenda includes meetings with British officials, financial leaders, and investors to present Pakistan’s economic progress and explore new collaboration opportunities.
During the visit, he will attend various key events, including investment forums and a roundtable titled “Pakistan Access Day,” hosted by global investment firm Jefferies. These gatherings will serve as platforms to highlight Pakistan’s market potential and its ongoing economic reforms.
Aurangzeb is also scheduled to engage with tech industry investors to discuss possibilities in areas such as artificial intelligence, healthcare, and mining.
In addition to investor meetings, the Finance Minister will hold high-level talks with representatives from the UK Treasury, the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office (FCDO), the Office for Budget Responsibility, and the Bank of England. These meetings will cover fiscal and monetary cooperation, economic outlooks, and development partnerships.
Executives from global firms like Deutsche Bank, Standard Chartered, Cargill, and British American Tobacco will also meet with Aurangzeb to explore investment prospects in Pakistan. A dinner reception hosted by the Pakistan High Commission in London will provide networking opportunities with British business leaders. The visit will conclude with press briefings and interviews with local and international media.
