Investment in the economy accelerated, but investment in mineral extraction declined

In 2025, capital investment in Kyrgyzstan continued to grow. In January–September, the volume of investment reached 206 billion KGS, which is 30.8% more than in the same period of 2024 (157.4 billion KGS).

The main drivers of growth

  • Construction — 103.9 billion KGS, compared to 52.9 billion in January–September 2024.
  • Manufacturing — 14.3 billion KGS, almost double the growth.
  • Agriculture, forestry and fisheries – 4.4 billion KGS, an increase of 25.9%.

A slowdown in investment was observed in mining (21.6 billion KGS compared to 36.1 billion a year earlier) and transport (12.8 billion KGS compared to 17 billion).

Capital investment growth is concentrated in construction and industry, reflecting a shift in investor priorities towards infrastructure and manufacturing. The mining and transport sectors are losing momentum despite overall economic growth.
