Islamabad – The government has decided to further expand the powers of the Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) to unify the investment system.
According to sources, after the merger of the Board of Investment, the SIFC will not only monitor foreign investment but will also be responsible for special economic zones and regulatory reforms.
This move is part of efforts to accelerate investment flows in the second phase of CPEC and create coordination between different institutions.
Government officials say that this new system will bring transparency and speed up investment decisions.
According to economic analysts, if these reforms are implemented effectively, the foreign investment environment in Pakistan can improve; however, the debate on the concentration of institutional powers will also continue.
