Pakistan, South Korea Advance CEPA Talks, Eye Stronger Trade Ties

The Federal Minister for Commerce announced the successful conclusion of the first CEPA negotiation round with South Korea, with a second round expected soon. This agreement aims to open new export avenues for Pakistan and strengthen bilateral economic ties, following a conference where six MOUs were signed. Officials highlighted Pakistan's export potential in textiles, leather, surgical goods, and IT services. While positive for long-term trade, the immediate impact of these ongoing negotiations on USD/PKR or local gold prices is expected to be limited.
