The Prime Minister said record increase in the Current Account Surplus will stabilize Pakistan's position in world economic market.

Shehbaz Sharif said this will also increase the confidence of domestic and international investors in Pakistan's economy.

He lauded the Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb, Minister of State for Finance Ali Pervaiz Malik and government's economic team for achieving this milestone.
