Abstract: It is well known that governments in developing countries such as Uzbekistan are actively looking at ways to improve their FDI policy. Developing nations often look toward other developed countries FDI policy based on its positive effects in the country’s economy. In many ways in this globalised world, if we look around the world and see what policies are successful, there are not many effective policies that could be implemented. However, it is acknowledged within the literature that the main factors influencing FDI policy in Uzbekistan are unfortunately negative. The main aim of this study is to look for possibilities to implement the Irish FDI policy in Uzbekistan. In the process, the study sought to investigate the main factors influencing FDI policy in Uzbekistan. The study also sought to discover the reasons why Uzbekistan should implement the Irish FDI policy. Data was collected using qualitative methods. The research was conducted through the use of semi-structured interviews of two existing government bodies, the IDA Ireland and Uzinfoinvest, and experts and senior managers in Uzbekistan and Ireland. This research concludes that restrictions on currency conversion, uncertainty of the rule of law, corruption and bureaucracy have been preventing multinationals from investing in Uzbekistan. There also appears to be a lack of a good track record of existing long-term companies.
