This study examines the dynamics and spatial distribution of investment in the Kashkadarya region of Uzbekistanover the period 2010—2024 using official subnational statistics from the State Statistics Committee of the Republic ofUzbekistan. This article aims to identify long-term investment trends and assess the degree of territorial disparity acrossdistricts and cities within the region. A descriptive statistical approach combined with district-level comparative analysis isapplied to evaluate temporal changes in investment volumes and their spatial concentration.The results indicate a substantial increase in total investment during the study period, particularly after 2017, however,this growth has been unevenly distributed across the region. Investment flows are highly concentrated in a limited numberof districts, notably Nishon, Muborak, and Qarshi city, while several districts consistently exhibit low investment levels.The findings reveal significant volatility in investment dynamics, reflecting the dominance of large-scale, project-basedinvestments rather than balanced regional allocation.The study contributes to the literature on regional development in transition economies by providing empirical evidence atthe subnational level. The results highlight persistent spatial disparities in investment distribution and underscore the needfor differentiated regional investment policies aimed at promoting more balanced and inclusive economic developmentin Uzbekistan.
