Pakistan's Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif directed his finance team to proceed with talks on an extended fund facility with the International Monetary Fund on Monday, according to a statement from his office.
Pakistan's multi-billion dollar funding agreement with the IMF is set to expire in April and economists say the incoming government will immediately need to begin talks on a new agreement.
