World Bank Warns of Slowing Tajikistan Economy
World Bank report highlights slowing Tajikistan economic growth due to external risks and reduced remittances.
A World Bank report warns that Tajikistan’s economic growth may slow in coming years because of mounting foreign policy and regional risks. The report underscores vulnerabilities such as tighter migration policies in Russia, which threaten to significantly reduce remittance flows and lower economic growth, increase poverty, and worsen fiscal and external balances. Growing global protectionism is expected to raise trade costs, and volatility in global commodity prices will impact Tajik exports, particularly aluminum, zinc, and ores. The World Bank projects a gradual slowdown of growth from 7.0% in 2025 to 4.9% in 2026 and 4.7% in 2027, with no immediate recession expected.
