The World Bank board will approve the loan, which will be funded through $200-250 million under the Pakistan Goes Global Programme after clearance by the Central Development Working Party (CDWP).
The summary proposal for the loan will be presented to the Federal Cabinet by the Ministry of Commerce today for deliberation.
