Within the framework of the Tbilisi Finance Summit, the Governor of the National Bank of Georgia, Natia Turnava, met with directors and vice presidents of the world’s leading investment funds and financial sector companies participating in the summit.

The meeting was attended by representatives of major international companies such as Accel, Ant International, Hivenet, BR Capital, Bybit, RedotPay, Eisele Capital, Coinbase, Finandir, and others.

During the discussion, Natia Turnava presented Georgia’s investment potential, macroeconomic environment, financial market, and the opportunities for developing the country’s fintech ecosystem.

According to Governor Turnava, the Tbilisi Finance Summit brought together leading investors from the region and around the world, many of whom manage multi-billion-dollar portfolios. She noted that one of the most valuable aspects of the summit was the direct engagement with investors.

“They have expressed interest in investing in Georgia, and several of them have already invested in our financial sector. These companies offer a variety of products, primarily focused on new financial instruments, lending products, and innovative payment mechanisms all of which will ultimately enhance competition in our market. Some of the investors plan to cooperate with our banking system, particularly with small banks, which will help strengthen competition in the financial sector. Others are interested in establishing new financial institutions in Georgia whether banks, payment service providers, or virtual asset service providers all contributing to the development of our financial infrastructure. I am pleased that Georgia is particularly attractive to them as a hub. Our goal and vision are precisely this for major global companies to establish their businesses in Georgia and serve both local and regional clients from here,” stated Natia Turnava.

The meeting was also attended by Ekaterine Mikabadze and Nino Jeladze, Vice Governors of the National Bank of Georgia.
