According to an official statement, consultants have proposed the launch of 13 financing windows. These are designed to support firm-level growth, strengthen compliance with international standards, and offer marketing intelligence services. Additional focus areas include labor productivity, branding, supply chain infrastructure, export credit and insurance, all aimed at improving market access for Pakistani exporters.

The proposal also includes the establishment of a challenge fund to assist businesses in entering new markets and developing innovative products for global trade.
