We are excited to share an interview with Vitaly Yakovlev, Managing Partner of KPMG in Azerbaijan, featured on the cover of Finansist Magazine. In this exclusive conversation, he explores how the Caucasus and Caspian region is emerging as a new global hub for infrastructure investment — and why Azerbaijan is at the center of this transformation shaping long-term economic growth. From new trade corridors to smart ports and sustainable urban development, the interview highlights how infrastructure is becoming a strategic engine of competitiveness in a rapidly changing global economy.
