The State Assets Management Agency of Uzbekistan held an online seminar on August 27, 2026, with the participation of German representatives. The goal of the event was to study modern methods of managing public real estate.
Representatives from the Federal Real Estate Institute of Germany (BImA), the Federal Ministry of Finance of Germany, the German Agency for International Cooperation (GIZ), and the consulting company Indecon Consulting took part in the seminar. Discussions focused on Germany's experience in centralized management of state real estate and practical ways to increase the efficiency of using state assets.
Sokhijon Murodov, Director of the State Assets Management Agency, noted the value of Germany's many years of experience for improving Uzbekistan's property management system. He particularly highlighted the institutional model of BImA, as well as the mechanisms for assessing, selling, and leasing state assets.
Operational Structure of Property Management
Representatives from BImA, Jörg Musial and Robert Erfen, presented Germany's operational structure for managing federal real estate, optimizing its use, and conducting maintenance. Participants also reviewed procedures for transferring properties to centralized management and maintaining digital registers of state assets. Special attention was paid to returning unused or underutilized state properties to economic circulation.
Christina Klaas, Head of Department at the Federal Ministry of Finance of Germany, acknowledged Uzbekistan's ongoing reforms in the field of state asset management and privatization. She emphasized that the country is consistently implementing modern management mechanisms and expanding the role of the private sector.
Knowledge Exchange Plan
During the seminar, both sides agreed on a three-stage plan for knowledge exchange in the field of public real estate management. The first stage involves conducting online training for agency specialists. In the second stage, experts from Germany will visit Uzbekistan to determine key priority areas for cooperation. The third stage includes a delegation visit from the agency to Germany to study the activities of BImA and the mechanisms of public property management on site.
After the seminar, participants discussed future prospects for further experience exchange and the integration of modern management practices into the state asset system of Uzbekistan.
