Pakistan's record foreign reserves built largely on borrowed money
Original: Pakistan just set a foreign reserves record. Much of it is borrowed money
Pakistan has reached a record high in foreign exchange reserves, but analysts point out that much of the increase comes from borrowed funds, including loans and deposits from friendly countries and international lenders, rather than export earnings. Commentary is focusing on whether the milestone reflects genuine economic stability or masks continued dependence on external debt.
Why now: People are debating whether Pakistan's reserves milestone signals real economic recovery or just fresh borrowing.
