Prime Minister Irakli Kobakhidze says international investors are showing strong interest in investing capital in Georgia’s financial sector, emphasizing the country's growing potential as a regional financial technology hub.
Speaking at the opening of the Tbilisi Financial Summit, Kobakhidze noted that the event will promote regional cooperation in developing financial services, helping Georgia strengthen its role as a fintech hub in the region.
“The financial sector in Georgia is developing dynamically and is becoming increasingly attractive to investors. The shares of leading Georgian banks have been traded on the London Stock Exchange for years, and Georgian banks are expanding operations abroad,” Kobakhidze said.
According to the Prime Minister, average economic growth between 2021 and 2024 was nearly 10%, supported by price stability and low inflation, which averaged 1.1% in 2024.
He highlighted that the Government of Georgia and the National Bank are jointly working to increase competition, expand access to finance, and promote digital and technological innovation in the financial sector.
Kobakhidze added that the Tbilisi Financial Summit will also help attract additional investments to the Middle Corridor countries, stimulate economic growth, and facilitate regional trade.
