<\/a><\/a>A delegation of the\u00a0Damac Group\u00a0<\/a>on Wednesday offered technical expertise to Pakistan in real-world assets, blockchain and artificial intelligence (AI), the finance minister said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A high-level delegation, including Damac Group<\/a> Co-Managing Director Amira Hussain Sajwani<\/a>, is on a visit to Pakistan and has held multiple meetings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One Group Chairman Syed Zeeshan Shah led the delegation\u2019s meeting with Finance Minister Muhammad Aurangzeb today.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe visiting delegation expressed strong interest in partnering with the Government of Pakistan and offered technical expertise, advisory support and capacity building in areas such as tokenisation<\/a> of real-world assets, blockchain-based platforms, AI-driven solutions and modern digital infrastructure,\u201d the finance ministry said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It added that the meeting focused on emerging global trends in tokenisation, AI, blockchain and digital infrastructure, and the potential for collaboration in support of Pakistan\u2019s ongoing financial sector reforms and digital transformation agenda.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The delegation highlighted \u201cglobal best practices and private-sector innovation that could support Pakistan in enhancing transparency, efficiency, investor access and financial inclusion, while fully respecting the country\u2019s legal and regulatory framework\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Aurangzeb welcomed the delegation\u2019s interest and appreciated their willingness to engage constructively with Pakistan, his ministry said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cHe underscored the government\u2019s commitment to responsible innovation, strong governance and regulatory compliance, and noted that Pakistan is actively engaging credible international partners to evaluate new technologies that can strengthen its financial ecosystem.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The finance ministry statement noted that the meeting took place amid Pakistan\u2019s recent initiatives to \u201cexplore responsible adoption<\/a> of emerging financial technologies, including the government\u2019s efforts to assess compliant blockchain infrastructure<\/a> for sovereign and real-world assets\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBoth sides noted that such technologies, if deployed prudently, can help deepen capital markets, attract international investment and support sustainable economic growth,\u201d the ministry said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

On December 18, Bilal bin Saqib, chairman of the Pakistan Virtual Assets Regulatory Authority (PVARA), discussed issues related to digital asset adoption with State Bank of Pakistan Governor Jameel Ahmad.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In August last year, the government officially established the Pakistan Digital Authority<\/a> (PDA) as one of three bodies formed under the Digital Nation Bill<\/a>. The PDA will develop, implement and monitor the national digital master plan, as well as establish a monitoring and evaluation framework for digital transformation projects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The agreement was reached during a meeting between Punjab Chief Minister Maryam Nawaz and a Damac Group delegation led by co-managing directors<\/a> Amira and Ali Hussain Sajwani in Lahore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThe Damac Group showed keen interest in investing in Punjab,\u201d the report stated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Sajwani delegation also called on IT Minister Shaza Fatima Khawaja to explore collaboration in Pakistan\u2019s digital and technology ecosystem, the government\u2019s Press Information Department (PID) stated<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The delegation \u201cpraised the talent of Pakistani youth and the country\u2019s digitisation framework, and expressed strong confidence in Pakistan\u2019s vast potential for PropTech, tokenisation, and technology-led investment\u201d, the statement said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The visiting businesspersons were given a briefing on Pakistan\u2019s digitisation vision, with \u201cparticular emphasis on women\u2019s digital and financial inclusion<\/a>\u201d.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The minister noted that under the Prime Minister\u2019s Ramazan Package, 500,000 women were digitally onboarded through the Benazir Income Support Programme (BISP) by opening digital wallets<\/a> in just one month, marking a major step toward financial inclusion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The IT minister reaffirmed the commitment to \u201cfacilitate global partnerships, enable innovation, and create a conducive digital environment to attract international investment and accelerate Pakistan\u2019s digital transformation\u201d, according to PID.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
