Senator Muhammad Aurangzeb, Federal Minister of Finance

Muhammad Aurangzeb leads Pakistan’s Ministry of Finance with a clear conviction that climate resilience and economic stability are inseparable. He co-launched Pakistan’s first ever National Climate Finance Strategy at COP29 and has championed the shift from project based climate spending to embedding resilience across national budgets. He is actively expanding green bonds, carbon markets, and debt for nature swaps as tools to attract the scale of investment Pakistan needs to protect its people and economy from deepening climate shocks.
