Description

The International Monetary Fund (IMF) has demanded that assets owned by Pakistani bureaucrats should be made public to ensure transparency and accountability.

A delegation of the global lander is visiting Pakistan to hold talks with the government officials as the cash-strapped South Asian country was trying to strike a staff-level agreement with IMF on the ninth review under the $7 billion Extended Fund Facility (EFF). The ninth review has been pending since September last.

Sources said the IMF had placed the condition while talking to the government. It has demanded the establishment of an authority and an electronic asset declaration system to public the assets of the government officers.

The global lander has also sought details of assets held by the officers in Pakistan and abroad. It also said the assets of the officers from grade 17 to 22 should be review before opening of their bank accounts.
