THE ROLE OF DATA-DRIVEN INVESTMENT STRATEGIES IN ENHANCING FINANCIAL SECURITY IN UZBEKISTAN
Abstract
As Uzbekistan progresses toward a market-driven economy, data-driven investment strategies are becoming critical to ensuring financial stability and fostering sustainable growth. The integration of financial technologies (FinTech), artificial intelligence (AI), and big data analytics in investment decision-making offers opportunities to enhance risk management, optimize asset allocation, and improve returns (World Bank, 2024). However, significant challenges remain, including limited access to real-time data, underdeveloped financial markets, and regulatory constraints (U.S. Department of State, 2024). This paper explores the impact of data-driven investment strategies on financial security in Uzbekistan, evaluates the challenges faced by the financial sector, and provides recommendations for integrating advanced technologies into investment practices. Additionally, it draws insights from international best practices to establish a framework for financial modernization in Uzbekistan.
