Tashkent, Uzbekistan (UzDaily.uz) — The Central Bank of Uzbekistan has studied the experience of financial regulators in Hong Kong and Malaysia, as well as Malaysian energy company PETRONAS, in data management and the automation of supervisory reporting.

A delegation from the regulator held meetings with representatives of the organisations on the sidelines of Hong Kong FinTech Week 2026.

Talks with the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA), Malaysia’s central bank Bank Negara Malaysia and PETRONAS focused on mechanisms for collecting detailed data from supervised institutions.

The discussions covered the development of a unified platform for submitting reports, data quality checks and data management systems. The practical application of the Ataccama data management platform was also considered.

The Central Bank of Uzbekistan said the experience gained would be used in its work to automate regulatory reporting.
