International Islamic Trade Finance Corporation (ITFC) launches landmark Trade Connect Central Asia+ (TCCA+) Program at the 3rd Tashkent International Investment Forum - Seite 2

The TCCA+ Program was explicitly designed for the region and tailored to the specific needs of the six targeted countries. Prior to the launching, a focal points meeting and program validation workshops were held in Istanbul, Türkiye, and Baku, Azerbaijan, in October and December 2022, respectively, to align with and validate the objectives of the Program with the needs of the 6 targeted countries. At last year's Tashkent International Investment Forum, ITFC also organised the TCCA+ Program Development Partners Roundtable to ensure the active involvement, engagement and collaboration of all development partners and relevant stakeholders.

As a key partner and sponsor of the Tashkent International Investment Forum 2024, ITFC has further demonstrated its commitment to supporting economic growth and fostering regional cooperation.

In his statement at the launching, Eng, Hani Salem Sonbol, CEO of ITFC and Acting CEO of ICD, said:

"We are immensely proud to launch the TCCA+ Program, which represents a significant step forward in enhancing economic cooperation and boosting trade across the Central Asia region and beyond. This initiative is designed to unlock the vast economic potential of the region by facilitating increased regional trade and investment. With a focus on the energy and agriculture sectors, we are committed to fostering sustainable economic growth and regional integration that benefits all member countries involved."

The Minister of Investments, Industry and Trade of the Republic of Uzbekistan, Laziz Kudratov, was quoted saying:

"We are honoured to host the launch of this transformative economic initiative, following the development and progress made at last year's Forum. We are united with ITFC in our shared goal to unlock the immense investment potential in Uzbekistan, and strongly support their efforts to drive economic prosperity across the wider region."
