According to Bloomberg, these were priced at yields of 7.75% for the 5.5 year bond and 8.25% for the 10 year. That is very expensive compared to what China, Saudis and IMF are charging.

This is first time Pakistan have secured 10 year bond, a sign of confidence.

IMF/Saudi/China rollovers tells foreign investors to stay away, this country cannot manage its finances. Forget about foreign investors, even locals stop all their investment.

I don't think anyone is going to rush in to invest in Pakistan just because the government borrowed dollars from the market at 8.25%.

Pakistan retarded economic policy is such that it provide $1 mmbtu gas to homes and $14 mmbtu to industry. Electricity that is double the price of BD/India.

Now industry is spending money on solar/bess instead of expansion.

Pakistan needs to renegiotiate its debt on the bases of its poor economic indicators with the western lenders. With a proper diplomatic dispatch, we'll be able to at the very least cut down the debt repayments in half.

It's a tragedy that nuclear power with a 260 million population cannot get its shit together enough to develop a spine and take a stand for its dying future.

Look at the post before yours. Patwaris claim IMF has cited Pakistan as a model for debt, growth and reform drives and they are jumping up and down with joy for having returned to market based borrowing, though at 8.25%.

It is certainly not something I will recommend to any nation, unless things are beyond repair. Any restructuring of debt leads invariably to low investor/lender confidence and higher cost of capital in future.
