Azerbaijan Paves Way for Private Management of State Airports
Azerbaijan is opening its state-owned airports to private operators under a new legal framework. A presidential decree now permits the transfer of airport management to specialized investors through public-private partnership (PPP) projects. This initiative aims to enhance operational efficiency, improve service quality, and boost the country's transit potential. The government will establish a commission to select investors and oversee the implementation of the new contracts. This policy shift is expected to attract significant private investment and leverage international expertise in the aviation sector.
