Will Pakistan Mortgage Overseas Pakistanis’ Income? | Habib Akram V-Log

13 March 2026 | Habib Akram V-Log #191 In this vlog, Habib Akram discusses an important economic debate currently emerging in Pakistan: whether the government plans to raise billions of dollars by issuing bonds backed by the future remittances of overseas Pakistanis. The vlog begins with a historical example from South Korea in 1964, when President Park Chung-hee secured loans from German banks by leveraging the future earnings of Korean workers in Germany. This strategy became one of the foundations of South Korea’s remarkable economic transformation. Habib Akram then explains how a similar idea is now being discussed in Pakistan’s policy circles. With more than 10 million Pakistanis working abroad and sending over $30 billion annually in remittances, the government is reportedly considering issuing $10 billion in bonds backed by these inflows through financial structures such as securitization. The discussion also explores how remittances from countries like Saudi Arabia, the UAE and other Gulf states play a critical role in stabilizing Pakistan’s economy, supporting the rupee and financing imports and debt repayments. However, the vlog raises a key question: Is this strategy a smart financial instrument similar to South Korea’s model, or is it simply another way of increasing debt without a long-term economic plan? Habib Akram also compares this approach with earlier attempts to attract overseas Pakistani investment through initiatives such as Roshan Digital Accounts and development projects proposed during previous governments. This episode examines the economic logic, risks and political implications of using diaspora remittances as financial collateral. 💬 Share your opinion in the comments: Should Pakistan use overseas Pakistanis’ remittances as collateral to raise new loans? 👉 Subscribe to Habib Akram for in-depth political and economic analysis.
