LEGAL UPDATE – FEBRUARY 2026 – THE LAW ON INVESTMENT 2025, EFFECTIVE FROM 1 MARCH 2026, INTRODUCES KEY CHANGES FOR INVESTORS AND ENTERPRISES

The period from 2020 to 2025 has been marked by significant geopolitical volatility. Investment activities and global supply chains have undergone substantial restructuring. It is widely observed that investment flows in general, and next-generation foreign direct investment (FDI) in particular, are no longer primarily driven by low-cost advantages or short-term incentives. Instead, they are increasingly oriented toward jurisdictions offering stable investment environments, well-integrated political, social, environmental, and technological infrastructure, and a strong commitment to sustainable development standards.
