We help DACH companies enter Central Asia through IFI-funded projects, and help capital
and goods move both ways through structured export finance — with direct relationships
on every side of the table.

Context
Central Asia is open for business. Two things usually get in the way.
The opportunity is real — active IFI pipelines, growing trade flows, and a market many
DACH firms have not yet properly entered. What holds them back is rarely the opportunity itself.
On the project side
Verified execution partners
Finding a subconsultant or subcontractor with a genuine track record — not just a CV — is the single biggest risk in an IFI-funded contract.
On the trade side
Bankable transaction structures
Central Asian importers and DACH exporters often struggle to find each other — and to structure a deal a DACH export finance bank will actually approve.
Solutions
Two lines, one bridge
Both lines run through the same advisor, with direct relationships on both ends. Choose the one relevant to you — or read both.

About
Why Amirov & Partners
An independent, Frankfurt-based advisory with roots on both sides of the bridge — European
finance and procurement standards on one end, active Central Asian networks on the other.
The value is not a database. It is relationships built over years, and the judgment to use them well.

Lines, One Advisor
IFI procurement and export finance are usually handled by separate specialists. Here, one advisor understands both, and how they intersect.

Line 01 — IFI Advisory
Verified partners for IFI-funded projects in Central Asia
We help DACH engineering, consulting and contracting firms enter EBRD, ADB, World Bank
and KfW-funded projects in Uzbekistan and the wider region — with subconsultants who are
verified, not just recommended.

The Challenge
The opportunity is real. The execution risk is where deals go wrong.
IFI-funded tenders in Central Asia move fast once awarded, and the biggest single risk is rarely the contract itself — it's whether the local subconsultant can actually deliver.
No reliable local partners
Vetting from abroad is slow
Finding and checking subcontractors and suppliers in Uzbekistan requires on-the-ground knowledge that most European firms simply don't have in-house.
IFI compliance complexity
Procurement rules add risk
EBRD, ADB, World Bank and KfW-financed projects carry strict procurement rules. Navigating these remotely adds cost, delay, and exposure.
Language & culture gap
Translation isn't enough
Effective negotiation requires understanding of local business culture and trust dynamics, not just a translated email.
No local presence
Deals slip without someone on the ground
Without someone holding all the threads locally, deals slip away or get structured poorly from the start.

Line 02 — Export Finance
Structured trade finance between DACH and Central Asia
We help DACH exporters reach qualified Central Asian buyers, and Central Asian importers
access DACH-financed equipment and technology — structuring each deal so it fits what an
export finance bank will actually approve.
Scroll
The Challenge
Trade flows exist. Bankable structures are the bottleneck.
Central Asian demand for DACH equipment and technology is growing, and DACH exporters are looking for new markets. What's missing is rarely appetite — it's the right counterparty and a structure a financing bank will sign off on.
No direct counterparty access
Buyers and sellers don't find each other
DACH exporters rarely have a direct line into qualified Central Asian importers, and importers rarely know which DACH suppliers are financeable.
Structuring complexity
Not every deal is bankable as proposed
Export finance banks and ECAs have specific requirements on counterparty, collateral and documentation. Deals often fail here, not at the negotiating table.
No banking relationship
Getting in front of the right bank
Without a direct line to the relevant export finance desk, a good deal can sit unfinanced for months.
Cross-border execution
Coordination gets lost mid-deal
Between two jurisdictions, languages and legal systems, deals lose momentum without someone coordinating both sides through to disbursement.
