SICCI hosts presentation highlighting Uzbekistan’s reforms, export potential and attractive investment climate.
The Singapore-India Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SICCI), one of Singapore’s oldest and most established business associations, recently hosted a presentation on Uzbekistan’s investment potential.
The event brought together representatives from leading Singaporean companies across the food, pharmaceutical, information technology, and logistics sectors. Attendees received an in-depth briefing on Uzbekistan’s ongoing economic reforms, favourable investment conditions within its free economic and industrial zones, and the country’s growing export potential.
At the event, Templeton Global’s Chief Investment Officer, Manraj Sekhon, provided an overview of the National Investment Fund of Uzbekistan, highlighting that its assets are now managed by the company, and discussed the country’s favourable investment climate and business development prospects.
Praising the nation’s recent economic transformation, Mr Sekhon described Uzbekistan as Central Asia’s most attractive market for investment, encouraging Singaporean businesses to pursue opportunities in the country.
Singaporean business representatives expressed interest in expanding collaboration with Uzbekistan and received comprehensive answers to their questions about doing business in the republic.
At the close of the presentation, it was agreed that a SICCI business delegation will visit Uzbekistan in September 2025, with plans to hold business forums in the regions of the republic.
