Directions for the Digital and Sustainable Management of Foreign Direct Investments in Uzbekistan

This article provides a comprehensive analysis of the priority directions for the digital and sustainable management of foreign direct investment (FDI) in Uzbekistan. The main objective of the study is to identify the role of digital technologies and sustainable development principles in improving the country’s investment climate, enhancing management efficiency, and ensuring long-term sustainable economic growth. In the course of the research, systematic and comparative analysis methods, generalization of statistical data, and the study of scientific sources were employed. The findings indicate that digital transformation processes - particularly the introduction of e-government systems, online investment platforms, and open data databases - enhance the transparency of investment processes, reduce bureaucratic barriers, and strengthen investor confidence. At the same time, the implementation of environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) criteria contributes to ensuring the sustainability of investment activities. The article also substantiates the need to develop digital infrastructure, deepen institutional reforms, adapt foreign experience, and widely implement international standards for the effective management of foreign direct investment in Uzbekistan. The results of the study contribute to increasing the country’s investment attractiveness, strengthening economic stability, and accelerating integration into the global economic system.
