The purpose of this study is to analyze sustainable tourism development in Uzbekistan from the financial perspective in the context of global sustainable development after the pandemic. The research shows that the structural financing gap is not due to the lack of capital, but is due to institutional and regulatory inefficiencies which limit the effective allocation of capital. The study points to the need for diversified financing instruments, such as public investment, foreign direct investment, and public–private partnerships, in comparison with other countries around the world, as well as countries in the CIS. The results highlight the need to build an integrated and sustainability-focused tourism finance landscape to boost the competitiveness of the tourism sector and long-term economic growth.
