He made these remarks while addressing the media in Islamabad, according to the Information Ministry.
He further added that the process of finalizing the Staff Level Agreement with the IMF played a crucial role in achieving this upgrade.
The Minister said all macro factors of the country's economy are looking positive which shows we are heading in the right direction.
Muhammad Aurangzeb said the policy rates are coming down which is positive news for the industry.
