The Central Bank raised its economic growth forecast

Uzbekistan's economy maintained a high level of growth in the third quarter of 2025. According to a report by the Central Bank, in the context of stable investment and business activity, economic growth for the year is expected to be around 7–7.5%. The increase in real incomes of the population and the activity of retail lending are supporting purchasing power and consumer demand. This, in turn, may sustain inflationary pressures in the future. The Central Bank also noted the secondary effects of the liberalization of energy resource prices and the risks related to the supply of certain products. In such a situation, it is considered necessary to maintain a strict monetary policy to further reduce inflation. According to Central Bank data, the current policy supports the attractiveness of savings, maintains the balance between overall demand and supply, and helps reduce the impact of monetary factors on price increases.
