A three-day roadshow for investment organised by Special Investment Facilitation Council (SIFC) in collaboration with the United States Agency for International Development began in the United Arab Emirates on Sunday.

The roadshow will provide awareness about the valuable resources and investment opportunities available in Pakistan and attract investors in diverse sectors, including minerals, information technology, agriculture and energy, the Radio Pakistan said in a report.

It said that the SIFC was working to create conducive environment to bring foreign investment in the country. “The roadshow, which will be attended by investors from the UAE and other countries, will also highlight the SIFC's efforts to improve investment climate in Pakistan,” the report added.

The state-run Pakistan Television (PTV) had earlier reported that the SIFC investment roadshow would run until November 7 (tomorrow), where the SIFC director general would brief the investors about the investment opportunities in Pakistan.

The SIFC was established by the previous coalition government to act as a ‘one window' for multi-domain cooperation in relevant fields, with a focus on Gulf countries in particular and other countries in general, to facilitate investment and develop an enabling policy environment.

It is also meant to improve the ease-of-doing business by removing systemic and bureaucratic hurdles, optimising horizontal-vertical synergy, improve coordination at the federal and the provincial levels, facilitating timely decision-making, and fast-tracking investment and project implementation.
