Key Political Risks Facing Central & Eastern Europe, Southeast Europe and Central Asia in 2025
Aretera's Annual Forecast for the Region
January 6, 2025
2025 will be a year of substantial challenges for international businesses globally. Investors in Central & Eastern Europe, Southeast Europe, Türkiye, the South Caucasus, Central Asia and Mongolia will face a combination of political and regulatory challenges amidst an increasingly complex geopolitical environment, likely accompanied by political instability and an uneasy economic climate.
Aretera’s 2025 Annual Forecast is an attempt to summarize the likely impact of this instability across our regions, hopefully delivering greater insight and understanding to those tasked with preparing for what lies ahead.
Our third annual report draws on the local expertise and insight of Aretera consultants in no fewer than 30 countries, and takes an extensive look at the political and geopolitical risks in CEE, the Western Balkans, Türkiye, Central Asia, Mongolia and the South Caucasus.
It also attempts to give an initial, succinct projection on how this year’s elections may unfold and the consequences for the business environment of potential political changeovers.
