Pakistan Economy - CAD Expected at USD1.23bn in Nov-18

  • We estimate CAD to remain relatively flat at USD1.23bn in Nov-18 compared to that in preceding month as improvement in trade deficit is expected to be offset by 20%MoM dip in remittances.
  • On yearly basis, CAD is expected to improve by 14%YoY mainly led by 11%YoY decline in Goods’ Imports in spite of 12%YoY dip in Goods’ Exports (based on estimated SBP numbers).
  • On cumulative basis, CAD is expected to total USD6.07bn in 5MFY19 down marginally by 3%YoY where major improvement has been owed to 13%YoY improvement in remittances where higher international oil prices during the earlier months masked improvement in Imports.
