Uzbekistan became a member of IFC in 1993. As of December 2008, IFC committed more than $70 million of its own funds and arranged for over $12 million in syndications. IFC's investment in the country has been mainly in the financial and general manufacturing sectors.
Advisory Services
Like its neighbor Kyrgyz Republic, Uzbekistan’s most active sectors for advisory programs are textile and banking. IFC has implemented projects in these areas since 1993. More recently, project managers have launched programs in new sectors such as telecommunications, where IFC is overseeing a pre-privatization program for the Government.
