The Secretary of Pakistan's Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC), Jameel Qureshi, held a session with officers attending the Senior Management Course at the National Institute of Public Administration (NIPA) in Islamabad, according to the Associated Press of Pakistan.
During the engagement, Qureshi discussed Pakistan's evolving investment landscape and the role that effective coordination among public-sector institutions plays in supporting investment-led economic growth. The session was framed as part of NIPA's training curriculum for senior government officers.
Focus on coordination
The SIFC was established to streamline and accelerate investment processes across government departments, aiming to reduce bureaucratic bottlenecks that have historically slowed foreign and domestic investment in Pakistan. Qureshi's remarks to the NIPA officers centered on how better alignment between public agencies can support that goal.
The Associated Press of Pakistan report did not provide further detail on specific policy measures discussed during the session or on any commitments made regarding future investment facilitation initiatives, nor did it specify the number of officers who attended.
NIPA's Senior Management Course is designed to prepare senior civil servants for leadership roles within Pakistan's public administration. Sessions with senior officials such as Qureshi are intended to give participating officers direct exposure to current government priorities, including the push to attract and retain investment.
