Georgia: The Georgian Minister of Finance, Lasha Khutsishvili, took part in the panel discussion “Within the Second International Conference of Capital Markets” on March 24, 2026, Tuesday. The session is devoted to the successful issuance of Georgian Government and Silk Road Group Eurobonds in international markets.
The Ministry of Finance of Georgia shared the glimpses of the panel discussion on its official Facebook Page along with a small note about the discussion.
The Minister of Finance spoke about the measures taken by the Georgian Government, which led to the successful issuance of Eurobonds. He, once again, highlighted the interest of international investors and the high demand for Eurobonds.
As Lasha Khutsishvili noted, this fact reaffirmed confidence in the economic policy of the Georgian government, through which the country could maintain stable macro-economic and fiscal parameters despite the difficult geopolitical circumstances.
“The rapidly changing geopolitical situation around us, unfortunately, is very familiar to Georgia. Such a development of events has an impact on small and open economies. The Georgian economy showed the consequences of many different shocks. We’ve seen geopolitical, pandemic-related, or oil price crises from multiple sources in recent years. However, thanks to a strong reform agenda, Georgia has managed to manage the challenges fairly well, which is a great achievement for a small and open economy. This is what we can offer the world and investors – with very sound policies, macroeconomic stability, and very strong fiscal numbers. The policy that we produce is a guarantee that the country will be able to overcome any kind of economic shock, – said Finance Minister Lasha Khutsishvili.
During his speech, he also touched on the prospect of emission of bond denominated in Lari and the interest of both local and international investors in this direction.
“In the context of the emission of stock papers, currency decomposition is one of our priorities.” “So far, we will be more active, both in international and local markets in GEL and other currencies,” said Finance Minister Lasha Khutsishvili.
The session was moderated by J.P. Morgan’s CEEMEA Regional Equity Markets (DCM) Department, Managing Director Stephen Weiler.
Together with the Minister of Finance, Vakhtang Butshrikidze, the CEO of “TBC Group“, and the founder of the “Silk Road Group” and Chairman of the Supervisory Board, Giorgi Ramishvili, participated in the discussion.
