Pakistan hits foreign reserves record built on borrowed money
Original: Pakistan just set a foreign reserves record. Much of it is borrowed money
Pakistan has reached a record level of foreign exchange reserves, but commentary is pointing out that much of the buildup comes from borrowed funds rather than export earnings or other organic inflows. Observers are questioning how sustainable the milestone is, given the country's reliance on external loans and repeated bailouts to shore up its finances.
Why now: Pakistan's reserves milestone is drawing scrutiny because it is driven largely by borrowing rather than genuine economic strength.
