According to the latest data from the State Bank of Pakistan, the country’s net FDI in December 2025 reported outflows of $135 million, compared to a net inflow of $180 million in November 2025.
The largest net outflow to FDI this month was from Norway of $376 million in the IT sector. According to Topline Securities, this was due to Telenor’s exit from Pakistan following the sale of its assets to PTCL.
