This paper aims to investigate the impact of infrastructure on trade in Central Asia based on the data of three countries: Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Tajikistan. Empirical estimations are based on panel data for the period 2010–2018. Infrastructure is measured by quality and quantity indicators. Trade flows are measured by the export and import volumes of each of these countries with their main trade partner countries. The results show that both the quality and quantity of infrastructure in Central Asia have a positive impact on trade flows. However, the positive impact of infrastructure over trade demonstrates a diminishing trend. Given the general remote geographical location of Central Asian countries, the findings of this study indicate that a regional approach to the development of infrastructure is important and that policy towards infrastructure development should be associated with a government policy that facilitates international trade.

本文旨在基于哈萨克斯坦、吉尔吉斯斯坦和塔吉克斯坦三个国家的数据，研究基础设施对中亚贸易的影响。实证估计基于 2010-2018 年期间的面板数据。基础设施是通过质量和数量指标来衡量的。贸易流量是通过每个国家与其主要贸易伙伴国的进出口量来衡量的。结果表明，中亚基础设施的质量和数量都对贸易流量产生了积极影响。然而，基础设施对贸易的积极影响显示出减弱的趋势。鉴于中亚国家普遍偏远的地理位置，
