The bank's analysts presented a macroeconomic forecast for 2026–2028
According to the EADB, the economies of Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, and Kyrgyzstan are expected to show acceleration. This is stated in the macroeconomic forecast published by the bank.
The analysts believe that the Central Asian countries will continue to grow confidently due to investments and the development of domestic demand.
Kazakhstan plans to sustain growth through the implementation of infrastructure projects and increasing non-raw material exports, which will help offset the decline in oil prices.
Kyrgyzstan, in turn, will become the leader in GDP growth rates in the region, relying on investments in transport infrastructure, the energy sector, and housing.
Tajikistan will also demonstrate high GDP growth this year, thanks to increased capacities in energy and manufacturing, as well as rising prices for gold and non-ferrous metals.
Uzbekistan will support growth due to significant investments and favorable gold prices.
As for the global economy, according to the EADB forecast, it will slow down in 2026: growth in the USA is expected to be around 1.6%, in the European Union — 1.1%, and in China — about 4.6%.
