FINANCING AND ATTRACTING INVESTMENTS IN THE DEVELOPMENT OF DOMESTIC TOURISM IN UZBEKISTAN

Abstract

Financing and attracting investments play a strategic role in the development of domestic tourism in Uzbekistan. The growth of this sector is not limited to transportation and infrastructure alone but also depends on service quality, modern hotels and recreational facilities, as well as the large-scale implementation of regional tourism projects. In this regard, government support programs emphasize the improvement of financing mechanisms through preferential loans, subsidies, and public–private partnership initiatives. Moreover, attracting both local and foreign investors creates opportunities to establish new tourist destinations and modernize existing ones across the regions. This process not only increases the flow of domestic travelers but also has a direct positive impact on regional economies, job creation, and the overall standard of living. Thus, ensuring effective financial and investment strategies is a key prerequisite for the sustainable development of domestic tourism in the country.
