become one of the most developed countries in the world by developing and
stabilizing their economy and improving their macroeconomic indicators. A
developed economy is inextricably linked with the stable growth of the country's
macroeconomic indicators, as well as the increase of the country's all-round
contribution to the world market, and positive indicators of the level of well-
being of the population [1]. Therefore, the instrument that ensures the effective

indicators, is attracted to the country. are investments.
Today, at the stage of globalization and technological armament in the
world, the role of investment flow in the interpretation of the combination of
economic development is of great importance. In order to attract foreign
investments through the position of the recipient state, the created investment
potential in the country, the modern infrastructure, the socio-economic policy of
improving the investment environment, in particular foreign they focus on the
unhindered entry of companies, the inviolability of private property, the
establishment of special economic and small industrial zones in the country to
direct their own capital as a business entity, and the availability of tax and other
financial benefits [2]. According to President Shavkat Mirziyoyev, "Any
country that has pursued an active investment policy has achieved stable growth
of its economy. That is why investment is the driver of the economy, it is no
exaggeration to say that it is the heart of the economy [3]". One of the main
benefits of foreign capital for the recipient countries is the improvement of the
existing infrastructure and the creation of favorable conditions for the
population. Therefore, the regional distribution of the investments attracted to
the country is very important for the development of the country, the lifestyle
and well-being of the local population.

our country and their equal and rational distribution among the regions,

reforms are being carried out continuously, and a number of measures are being
taken to increase the attractiveness of the investment environment of the
regions. Local - regional, city, district hokims are given a number of tasks to
study the problems of the territory assigned to them and eliminate them, to use
the existing investment potential and potential of the regions effectively
As a result of the investment environment created in our country
and benefits from taxes, duties and other state payments provided to attract
foreign investors, most of the capital investments in our country are accounted
for by foreign investments (Figure 1). In 2017, almost a quarter of the total
investments were foreign investments, and by 2022, this figure will be 42.8%.

of our country. Soums of investments in fixed capital were absorbed, their share
in the total investments in the Republic was 36.0%, and compared to 2021, it
was 104.3%
It is important that the investment environment of all regions in the
country is attractive to investors at the same or similar level, because it is
important to achieve economic growth through investments and to further
improve the attractiveness of the investment environment in the country and its
regions while increasing the share of foreign direct investment. plays a decisive
role. This, in turn, shows the need to develop scientific proposals and practical
recommendations for regional investment policy and its improvement in
attracting foreign investments [4].

large number of jobs for the local population, directly and indirectly, due to the
emergence of enterprises operating in various fields, the expansion of the scope
and size of existing enterprises due to the attracted capital. ladi It should not be
