Businessman Urges Construction Finance System, Sector Reforms for Growth

Mian Zahid Hussain, head of the Pakistan Businessmen and Intellectuals Forum, advocates for a dedicated construction financing system, digital approvals, and tax policy improvements to address long-term, low-cost financing gaps. He highlights the sector's 5.7% growth in FY25-26 and its role as an economic multiplier, welcoming government plans for a Construction Industry Development Board. While positive for long-term economic stability, these proposals and past growth figures are unlikely to cause immediate shifts in gold or currency rates.
