Overseas Pakistanis Can Now Invest in PM’s Apna Ghar Scheme

The federal government has expanded the Prime Minister’s Apna Ghar (PM-APG) housing finance program to include overseas Pakistanis, in a major push to widen access to affordable housing finance.

The decision was taken in a meeting of the Economic Coordination Committee (ECC) of the Cabinet today, chaired by Federal Minister for Finance and Revenue, Muhammad Aurangzeb, held at the Finance Division.

The ECC approved a revised framework for scaling up housing finance outreach under the program. The updated structure includes institutional financing, public-private partnerships, participation of non-banking financial institutions, and formal inclusion of overseas Pakistanis to help achieve program targets.

Officials said the expansion is aimed at improving access to housing finance and accelerating progress on national housing goals by involving a broader range of investors and financial institutions.
