Central Asia remains one of the world’s fastest-growing regions, with economic growth outpacing the global average. The region’s combined GDP has now exceeded $550 billion. Intra-regional trade is also on the rise. Over the past six years, trade among Central Asian countries has doubled, reaching $12 billion. The countries now aim to increase that figure to $20 billion. Kazakhstan's trade with its Central Asian neighbors has already surpassed $8.5 billion. To sustain this momentum, the region is launching new projects. Countries are establishing trade and logistics hubs, developing joint manufacturing ventures, and expanding e-commerce and the digital economy. Among the region's priorities is the development of transport infrastructure, particularly the Trans-Caspian International Transport Corridor and new railway routes.
