It was a privilege to meet Bilal Azhar Kayani, State Minister for Finance & Railways, at his office to discuss a foreign company exploring investment opportunities in Pakistan.

Our conversation focused on the facilitation required from the government to enable smooth entry and long-term success. The Honourable Minister’s full support and encouragement send a reassuring signal to international investors evaluating Pakistan’s potential.

I am especially grateful to my LUMS class fellow and dear friend, Abdul Jawwad, Joint Secretary at the Ministry of Finance Pakistan, for facilitating this connection and for his continued guidance in public service. Constructive engagements like these reinforce confidence in Pakistan’s economic trajectory.
