The Nakhchivan Autonomous Republic became a leader of the annual investment rating of the economic regions of Azerbaijan, compiled by the Caspian Energy International Media Group. The rating presented the results of the economic reforms and social policy of the regions implemented in the country under the leadership of His Excellency Ilham Aliyev, President of the Republic of Azerbaijan and Chairman of the Caspian European Club. The regions are ranked by 18 parameters divided into 6 groups: social-demographic profile, social-economic status, business climate, infrastructure, feel-good factor and agriculture.

The Caspian European Club, which brings together more than 5,000 member companies and organizations from 70 countries around the world, was established in June 2002 with the support of the largest oil and gas companies working in the Caspian-Black Sea region and with the active involvement of the Caspian Energy International Media Group. The Caspian American Club (established on 24 December 2016) and Caspian Asian Club (26 January 2018) will be managed by the Members of the Board of the Caspian European Club for 2 years. All companies that join the Caspian European Club as members get an automatic membership within the Caspian American Club, Caspian Asian Club and vice-versa.
