Yesterday, Pakistan repaid $1 billion in Eurobonds as a scheduled payment ahead of seeking a long-term bailout from the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
The bond, launched in 2014 and repaid on Friday, was maturing this month.
“The payment was made to the agent bank for onward distribution to the bond holders,” the State Bank of Pakistan said in a statement.
Pakistan has been struggling with a balance of payments crisis, record inflation and steep currency devaluation since an IMF standby arrangement averted a sovereign default.
