Investment activity is recovering in Belarus, BelTA reports, citing the macroeconomic review of the Eurasian Development Bank (EDB).
“The decline in fixed capital investment slowed to 3% in January–March 2026, following a drop of 7.7% in January–February. This was upheld by a 1.5% increase in equipment purchases after a 3.8% decline,” the review reads.
Construction and assembly work remains in negative territory (minus 2.3%), but the contraction has significantly narrowed.
“The expansion of investment lending by 26.9% and the easing of lending requirements are creating conditions for the recovery of investment growth,” EDB analysts noted.
