On July 20, 2026, the Chairman of the National Bank of Tajikistan Firdavs Tolibzoda met with representatives of the Global Green Growth Institute (GGGI). During the meeting, the parties exchanged views on the development of sustainable financing, strengthening the green financial system, attracting investment in environmental projects, and expanding cooperation.
The Chairman of the National Bank of Tajikistan noted that under the current conditions, the issue of climate change is not only an environmental issue, but also one of the most important economic and financial factors, and the development of a green financing system is one of the priority areas of the economic policy of the Republic of Tajikistan. The National Bank of Tajikistan is taking consistent measures to create a favorable environment for attracting private investment, developing the capital market, and managing risks related to climate change.
In this context, the experience of OJSC Eskhata Bank in issuing the first corporate green bond in the Republic of Tajikistan, which was carried out with the support of the International Finance Corporation, was considered an important basis for the further development of the capital market and sustainable financing. During the meeting, the parties also discussed issues regarding technical assistance provided by the Global Green Growth Institute for developing the legal and institutional framework, strengthen human resources, and identify projects in line with green financing requirements. At the end of the meeting, the parties expressed their willingness to expand mutually beneficial cooperation in developing sustainable financing, strengthening the capital market, attracting long-term investments, and issuing quasi-sovereign green bonds in the Republic of Tajikistan.
