Indicateurs macroéconomiques

In Uzbekistan, growth is projected at 6.0% in 2024, moderating slightly to 5.8% in 2025. Consumption growth in 2024 is expected to remain strong as average real wages increase and remittance inflows remain high.

Import growth should accelerate in 2024 and continue buoyancy in the medium term to support economic modernization. Supported by high remittances, the current account deficit is projected to narrow in 2024 compared to 2023.

The overall fiscal deficit is expected to reduce to 3.7% of GDP in 2024 due to higher-than-expected nominal GDP in 2024 and fiscal consolidation measures, notably reduced energy subsidies and on-lending to state-owned enterprises, and higher revenue collection.

Fiscal consolidation is expected to continue in the medium term, with the budget deficit decreasing to 3.0% of GDP by 2025, as the government reduces tax expenditures and anticipated privatization proceeds support revenues. Headline inflation is expected to decline to 9% in 2025 and gradually approach the inflation target of 5% in 2027.

The government is expected to adhere to its debt limits, with public debt decreasing to 35.9% of GDP in 2024 and 34.6% of GDP in 2025. 

Higher remittances and real growth in private consumption will lead to further poverty reduction, with the upper-middle income (UMIC) poverty line projected to decrease to 15.2% in 2024.

Downside risks to this outlook include a deterioration in Russia’s economic performance, higher external inflationary pressures, and tighter-than-expected global financial conditions. Upside risks include higher global gold and copper prices, and stronger productivity growth and FDI due to ongoing structural reforms.
