Report on the Implementation of the Investment Policy Review of Uzbekistan

The Government of Uzbekistan has adopted many policy initiatives to improve the business environment.

A range of measures were taken to improve the policy, legal and institutional framework affecting the attraction of investment and the development of entrepreneurship.

Aimed at supporting the achievements of the country’s development objectives, these measures were geared at increasing the value added of production, including through high-technology activities.

In 2020, the Government requested UNCTAD for technical assistance on investment policies. Based on the Investment Policy Framework for Sustainable Development and the recommendations made in the Investment Policy Review for the country (which dates from 1999), this Report assesses the progress made to strengthen the investment environment and highlights additional actions to support the country’s objectives and foster sustainable development.
