Why the IMF?
January 02, 2023
Indeed, going for support to the IMF is a country’s worse economic nightmare as implementing its standard prescription of strong stabilisation measures, backed by tough economic reforms, inevitably results in economic misery for the poor and the newly emerging middle class. However, without its support and ‘letter of confidence’, many countries face the threat of default as programme lending from IFIs (World Bank, Asian Development Bank) is dependent on their green signal and without it global financial markets punish you with unaffordable high rates of interest.
Pakistan has been under a dozen IMF programmes over the last 30 years of which only two have been successfully completed. Both sides blame the other — the IMF that we have never followed through promised reforms and our economic policymakers that the cost is far too high and the benefits a distant mirage.

Entrepreneurship and Platform-based Value Creation
December 07, 2022
Mr. Qasif Shahid, Co-founder, and CEO of Finja delivered a session to the MBAs at the Lahore School of Economics on Entrepreneurship and Platform-based Value Creation on 6 December 2022. During the session, he highlighted the following trends and shared the following insights.
It is wrong to think of Entrepreneurship as an “electric guitar” which one has purchased after following a trend. “Entrepreneurship consumes your soul.” It is not about starting a business that everyone else has been doing, such as indulging in trading, buying plots, making plazas, or running a shop. It is more about creating something which did not exist before, which you can grow, which should impact others, and which in its very foundational design is premised upon creating value not only for yourself but also for the stakeholders around you. All great entrepreneurs in the primary phase of entrepreneurship were doing something noble; if they changed into something else, they changed having reached a certain scale, size, and success.Read more »
