City of London expertise moves closer to Tashkent’s investment reforms
The Tashkent International Financial Centre will operate under a separate legal framework as officials seek closer links with British counterparts. The wider push also includes international listings and efforts to attract more private capital.
Uzbekistan is moving closer to implementing investment reforms by establishing a special legal regime based on English common-law principles to attract foreign investment in its new Tashkent International Financial Centre. The city of London's expertise is being sought to strengthen cooperation with Uzbekistan and the wider Central Asian region.
The centre will operate under a separate legal framework within Uzbekistan, offering access to English common law rules and an independent international commercial court and arbitration mechanisms. The move aims to turn political interest into investable projects, with potential cooperation in critical minerals, agriculture, education, technology, digitalisation, and artificial intelligence.
