According to the results of 2025, the volume of investments attracted to Turkmenistan’s economy exceeded 12.8 billion US dollars, marking a 6.0% increase compared to 2024. This was announced by Deputy Minister of Finance and Economy of Turkmenistan, Perhat Yagshiyev, at the international forum titled “Investments in the Future of Turkmenistan” held in Ashgabat on Wednesday.

According to him, in addition to overall investments, the growth in foreign investments continues. The main priority sectors include oil and gas, petrochemicals, energy, construction, and the agro-industrial complex.

As of the end of 2025, inflation stood at 3.2%. Foreign trade turnover reached 21.8 billion dollars, increasing by 10.3% compared to the previous year. The 1.4-fold increase in imports is associated with the growing purchase of production and technical goods.

Gross Domestic Product (GDP) exceeded 77.4 billion dollars, while the economic growth rate reached 6.3%.

As noted by Perhat Yagshiyev, Turkmenistan continues its process of accession to the World Trade Organization (WTO). A draft Memorandum on the foreign trade regime has been prepared, and work is underway to gradually implement the organization’s norms and rules. These efforts are being carried out in cooperation with the WTO Secretariat and international institutions, aiming to determine optimal tariff policy conditions in priority sectors of the economy.
