As the Center for Economic Research and Reforms (CERR) of the Republic of Uzbekistan notes, the positive dynamics in the rating indicates structural changes in the country's economy, as well as an increase in the competitiveness of national products in world markets. Of particular importance is the expansion of the range of exported goods, including products of mechanical engineering, chemical industry, raw material processing and textile industry.
Uzbekistan's improved position in the Index of Economic Complexity reflects the Government's efforts to modernize production facilities, create a favorable business environment and actively attract investment, including in high-tech and knowledge-intensive sectors of the economy.
