Pakistan has pledged to the International Monetary Fund (IMF) to implement anti-corruption reforms, including publishing asset declarations of civil servants by December 2026 under the $7 billion programme.
The government will introduce a centralised digital system for submission and verification of asset declarations, enabling risk-based checks, limited public disclosure, and safeguards for sensitive personal information.
Annual statistics on investigations, prosecutions, and convictions related to corruption will be published, alongside operational rules and procedures governing the accountability framework to strengthen institutional oversight.
The Federal Board of Revenue (FBR) will develop a digital platform for asset submissions by June 2026, while declaration forms will be updated by May 2026.
Banks will gain expanded access to asset declarations of public officials, including those in federal and provincial governments, with transparency statistics published by authorities by June 2026.
An anti-corruption action plan targeting ten departments with highest risk exposure will be completed by October 2026, based on a methodology finalised in consultation with IMF.
Committees under the Economic Governance Reform plan will monitor progress, with semi-annual reports published by the Ministry of Finance and dialogues scheduled to review implementation challenges.
Provincial anti-corruption establishments will be authorised to access financial intelligence through the Financial Monitoring Unit by December 2026, enhancing capacity to investigate financial crimes including money laundering.
