3 Questions to Aziz Inomkhodjaev

We asked Aziz Inomkhodjaev, Chief Representative Tashkent, about the people who use his services, what his customers expect, and how he can surprise them.

1. Who uses your services and expertise?

LBBW’s Representative Office in Tashkent is today deemed to be the gateway for our clients to Central Asia.

We also provide advisory services to local banks and importers with the aim of better connecting our clients with their potential customers.

2. What attractive options do customers often underestimate?

Customers often underestimate the local mentality and cultural differences in doing business. The local proverb says: “The East is a delicate matter”.

We are ready to share with you our huge market and product knowledge, experience and understanding of the local mentality.
