According to the Regional Economic Outlook report, the key drivers of growth in Kyrgyzstan are the development of the tourism industry, increased revenues from tourist transportation and services, and support from remittances.
Investment in infrastructure and exports of precious metals such as gold and silver also play a significant role. Growth may slow to 7% in 2025, but the economy will remain on the upswing.
The EBRD also warns of the risks of secondary sanctions that could affect Kyrgyzstan's trade, but strong domestic demand and active market reforms will help maintain economic stability.
