Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb has reiterated the government's resolve to integrate climate considerations into national economic planning.

He was virtually addressing the third Pakistan Climate Conference organized by the Overseas Investors Chamber of Commerce and Industry in Karachi today.

Terming population growth and climate change as two major challenges, the Minister said that the Ministries of Finance, Climate, and Planning will work together to bring Pakistan onto a sustainable pathway of growth and resilience.

He said that the success of Pakistan's first green Eurobond in 2021, which raised 500 million dolars, illustrates our capacity to attract sustainable investments.

Muhammad Aurangzeb expressed Finance Ministry's dedication for creating an enabling environment for green investments and said through fiscal reforms, regulatory support, and capacity building, we aim to attract both international and domestic investments in green projects to secure a sustainable future for Pakistan.
