At a briefing held recently, Danil Ibraev, president of the Kyrgyz Union of Industrialists and Entrepreneurs and a member of the Presidium of the Business Council of the Eurasian Economic Union, announced that in 2026, the budget for supporting industrial cooperation will triple.

Ibraev noted that significant progress was made in 2025 in creating unified products by residents of three or more countries of the union. Thus, funding in this area demonstrates impressive dynamics: in 2024 it amounted to 1.8 billion rubles, in 2025 it increased to 3 billion, and in 2026 it is expected to grow to 9 billion rubles.

“This indicates that the Eurasian Economic Commission is successfully applying direct financial instruments to subsidize the interest rate,” Ibraev added.

He also explained that with the Bank of Russia's key rate at 15.5% and the cost of credit at 21-22%, the rate for entrepreneurs after subsidization will be around 6-6.5%. The formation of the budget for this mechanism is funded by anti-dumping and compensatory duties, which can reach 10%.

Danil Ibraev noted that in 2025, Kyrgyzstan was able to achieve progress in this area. The first project for the production of computer cases has already been agreed upon, and in the future, the production of laptops and tablets is planned.

Additionally, this year a project will be launched for the production of special heat-resistant paper for the construction industry. At the initiative of the Kyrgyz side, the implementation of cooperative projects in the agro-industrial complex with the participation of three or more countries will begin.
