China Rolls Over $3.4 Billion in Loans to Pakistan: Report
China has helped Pakistan by extending the deadline for repaying $3.4 billion in loans.
This includes money already in Pakistan's bank and a loan that was recently paid back.
This financial maneuver is important because it helps Pakistan increase its financial reserves.
Pakistan also received more money from other sources.
This is all happening because the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has certain requirements for how much money Pakistan should have.
China rolled over $3.4 billion in loans to Pakistan.
The rollover includes a $2.1 billion deposit in Pakistan's central bank.
A $1.3 billion commercial loan was refinanced.
Pakistan received additional funds from Middle Eastern banks and multilateral financing.
The move is expected to help Pakistan meet IMF targets.
