Kyrgyzstan continues to impress with its high level of attracting foreign direct investment (FDI), making it a leader among countries in the Eurasian region. According to the Eurasian Development Bank (EDB), from the beginning of 2024 to mid-2025, the volume of accumulated investments in the country increased by 21%. In comparison, the average growth in the region, including the CIS, Georgia, and Mongolia, was only 6.2%, highlighting investors' interest in Kyrgyz assets.
The total volume of foreign capital in the economy of Kyrgyzstan reached 2.4 billion dollars. The main financial partners of the republic have been Russia, which invested about 300 million dollars, and Uzbekistan, with investments amounting to approximately 120 million dollars. The primary driver of this growth is the energy sector, which received 210 million dollars in investments. This sector shows high dynamics due to increasing domestic demand and regional trends in the development of renewable energy sources. Additionally, a significant influx of investments also occurred in the manufacturing industry, amounting to 95 million dollars.
It is worth noting that all new investment projects planned for 2024–2025 fall into the greenfield category, which implies the creation of new enterprises and infrastructure from scratch. This indicates long-term business confidence in the market. Among the most significant initiatives, experts highlight the construction of a solar power plant and the establishment of a health and wellness cluster in the Issyk-Kul region, which not only strengthens the country's energy security but also enhances its tourist attractiveness.
