He highlighted three key areas in which work will be carried out: financial support, non-financial measures such as training and assistance in finding partners, as well as analytical support.
One of the main tools will be a preferential lending mechanism. As part of a pilot project, exporters will be offered an interest rate of 10% per annum, which is significantly lower than market values, which range from 18% to 22%.
"The State Development Bank is participating in this mechanism, providing loans at a rate of 8%. Risks will be insured by the State Insurance Organization and the Eurasian Reinsurance Company at 1%, and the Guarantee Fund will also cover part of the collateral at 1%. Our center will coordinate this process," Jumaliev explained.
He added that this mechanism will be available to companies that have real export contracts and confirmed shipments, ensuring the continuity of their production.
In addition, according to the deputy director, the government will partially compensate entrepreneurs' costs in the following areas:
- Transport costs: reimbursement of up to 20% of actual expenses (but no more than 5 million soms).
- Certification and laboratory services: 50% of expenses for implementing international standards, re-certification, and laboratory analyses.
- Exhibition activities: 50% compensation for expenses related to renting exhibition spaces abroad and up to 70% for registration fees.
Additionally, the deputy director reported that the Center is preparing about 30–35 analytical reports concerning the markets of the UAE, Gulf countries, the European Union, and China.
"We are developing brief guides that will help understand how to export, assess competitiveness and market volume, as well as prepare packaging and labeling," he concluded.
