According to the EDB, several promising areas for investment include:
manufacturing industry,
energy sector (including renewable energy sources),
transport and logistics services,
agricultural sector.
The manufacturing industry is becoming the foundation of a new industrial model in Eurasia, covering areas such as machine engineering, metallurgy, chemistry, as well as oil and gas processing.
The authors of the study note that for China, this is an opportunity not only to localize part of the manufacturing processes closer to sources of raw materials and markets but also to use industrial cooperation to deepen economic ties with the countries of the region.
“The manufacturing sector provides Eurasian countries with significant potential for increasing exports, import substitution, and production growth, which could lead to annual effects in the hundreds of billions of dollars,” stated one of the experts.
