— Uzbekistan in a historically short period of time has made tremendous progress in all spheres of life. With the proclamation of independence in the country embarked on the formation of market relations based on an evolutionary and phased development.

Most importantly, the transition from a centrally planned economy to a market economy shall be based on the specific conditions and characteristics of the country, traditions, customs, way of life, as well as the experience of other states that have passed the path of market reforms.

Separately, it should be noted that during the years of independent development Uzbekistan has managed to develop and implement an effective investment policy. The country created a favorable business environment, a broad system of legal guarantees and privileges for foreign investors, take concrete measures to stimulate the activities of enterprises with participation of foreign partners. All this contributed to a substantial increase in the inflow of direct foreign investment in the economy.
