The National Bank of the Republic of Tajikistan published a readout of a 17 July 2025 meeting between its chairman, Firdavs Tolibzoda, and the newly appointed International Monetary Fund (IMF) Resident Representative in Tajikistan, Ghazi Shbaikait, focused on ongoing macroeconomic and reform cooperation. The discussion covered recent statistical indicators and reported positive trends in Tajikistan’s economic development, as well as progress under the Policy Coordination Instrument (PCI) as a mechanism to advance structural reforms and improve monetary and credit policy. The parties also referenced more than 30 years of IMF support for Tajikistan through reform assistance, macroeconomic stabilisation efforts, and financial sector development, and indicated that cooperation would be strengthened going forward.
