BAKU, Azerbaijan, June 15. European Bank for
Reconstruction and Development (EBRD) President Odile Renaud-Basso
will visit Uzbekistan from June 17 through 19 for meetings with
senior government officials and foreign investors.
This was reflected in a statement by the press service of the
European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD).
EBRD notes that during the visit, Renaud-Basso is scheduled to
meet Uzbek President Shavkat Mirziyoyev and hold bilateral talks
with other senior officials.
She will also co-chair a plenary session of the Foreign
Investors Council, bringing together government representatives and
international investors to discuss Uzbekistan’s ongoing economic
reforms and investment climate.
Uzbekistan has remained the largest recipient of EBRD funding in
Central Asia for the past six consecutive years, reflecting the
bank’s growing engagement in the country’s reform agenda and
private sector expansion.
The visit is expected to further strengthen cooperation between
the EBRD and Uzbekistan, particularly in supporting investment
flows, private entrepreneurship, and structural economic
reforms.
Meanwhile, the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development
(EBRD) is the largest institutional investor in Uzbekistan, with a
historical investment of nearly $7 billion across over 200
strategic projects. The partnership focuses heavily on private
sector development, the green energy transition, and public
infrastructure.
