AGP Executive Report

Last update: 6 hours ago

Foreign Trade: Nepal’s exports rose 57% to Rs 114.29 billion in the first quarter of 2026/27, but imports climbed 38% and the trade deficit widened to Rs 532.49 billion. Processed vegetable oils made up about 52% of exports, highlighting the country’s reliance on a narrow range of goods. Digital Economy: A Birgunj bootcamp trained 25 young developers to build and deploy AI-assisted software, with projects spanning fintech, healthcare and digital accessibility. Climate Finance: Nepal’s bid to secure a formal COP31 agenda on mountain risks fell short; Foreign Minister Shisir Khanal urged predictable, accessible adaptation funding to protect mountain communities. Markets and Infrastructure: Nepal Airlines’ aircraft loan has grown from Rs 34 billion to Rs 55.92 billion, while regulators are moving toward intraday share trading. Nepali tea exports through Kakarbhitta nearly doubled.
