Washington: Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb said on Monday that Pakistan is on track to secure a new loan from IMF.
In an interview with English Language newspaper The National, he said the IMF has been very receptive in terms of agreeing to consider a larger and longer programme.

The Finance Minister said Pakistan's currency has stabilized and the inflation is on track to drop to single-digit levels by the end of next year.
