پاکستان کو بنیادی ڈھانچے کے لیے نئے رسک فنانسنگ ماڈل کی ضرورت

Pakistan's infrastructure is increasingly vulnerable to climate and disaster risks, with the 2022 floods alone causing over $30 billion in damages and economic losses. The country needs to evolve its financing model from one focused primarily on construction to one that anticipates disruption, exploring tools like parametric insurance and leveraging private capital. For FY 2025–26, the infrastructure sector received an allocation of approximately Rs 614.7 billion, with the broader construction sector growing 6.61% in FY 2024–25. This long-term strategy aims to bolster economic resilience, which could indirectly support the PKR by reducing future fiscal burdens from disasters.
