It is an approach which postulates a holistic, balanced and integrated perspective on development.
It’s growth equation and the ability to integrate and innovate has radically changed the Uzbekistan economy structure. A reliable legal framework for dynamic economic development and favourable investment climate has also been created.
This is supported by macro-economic indicators and the annual Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth of Uzbekistan has exceeded 8% over the last 11 years, which is one of the highest in the world.
The GDP has increased 5.5 times during the years of independence, while GDP per capita (PPP) has risen by 4 times. Since 2005, state budget has reached its annual surplus contributing to the present state of macro-economic stability. This has inspired Mr. Jalan to be optimistic about the bright future, growth and development of Uzbekistan.

With many projects valued at more than US $ 1 billion and having his presence in famous hubs of Uzbekistan like Tashkent, the capital (which means “Stone Village” in Uzbek) is also a centre of Uzbek culture.
