Baker Tilly Bishkek Legal Accredited by the Uzbek-Kyrgyz Development Fund and the National Investment Fund of the Kyrgyz Republic

Baker Tilly Bishkek Legal law firm has successfully completed accreditation with two major development funds in Kyrgyzstan: the Uzbek-Kyrgyz Development Fund and the National Investment Fund of the Kyrgyz Republic. Both funds accredited Baker Tilly Bishkek Legal as an independent law firm.

What the accreditation means

Both funds finance investment projects of importance to the national economy and engage external professional advisors.

The accreditation expands Baker Tilly Bishkek Legal’s ability to participate in projects and transactions involving fund financing, including legal due diligence, investment structuring, drafting and negotiation of transaction documents, and full-scope legal support for investment projects.

For clients, this means access to a legal advisor that has passed the accreditation procedures of these funds and brings experience in investment projects together with knowledge of the legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic.

“For our team, obtaining accreditation with two investment funds at once is an important professional achievement. We see it not only as recognition of our team’s professional capabilities, but also as an opportunity to make a practical contribution to the implementation of investment projects, capital raising and the development of the country’s economy.

Our goal is to help investors and development funds not only assess legal risks, but also find effective legal solutions that enable investment projects to be implemented.”
