The Central Bank and The Currency Exchange Fund signed a memorandum focused on hedging instruments, foreign-exchange risk management and the foundations of a modern derivatives market.
At a 12 March meeting, the Central Bank and TCX reviewed mechanisms for reducing foreign-exchange risk in Uzbekistan’s domestic financial market and options for strengthening the related regulatory and legal framework. The parties formalized the cooperation through a memorandum of understanding.
The programme prioritizes training for specialists at banks and large state-owned enterprises, practical seminars on hedging instruments and continuous knowledge exchange among market participants. A broader derivatives toolkit could improve risk allocation and support the investment appeal of Uzbekistan’s financial market.
