Infrastructure in Eurasia: Short-Term and Medium-Term Trends

The goal of this report is to examine the main trends in infrastructure development in the Eurasian region. The report analyses the state of infrastructure in key sectors of interest to multilateral development banks (MDBs), including the EDB (transport, logistics, energy, water, telecommunications, etc.). It focuses on strategic areas for future infrastructure development that will contribute to greater economic integration in the region. Based on the identified trends in infrastructure development, the report suggests promising areas of activity for major investment market actors (including the forms of investment used) and helps to track institutional changes and define government priorities for further development. In the current environment, the Central Asian region has grown in importance and is the focus of interest for key political and economic actors, and is therefore accorded the greatest attention in the report.
