The article reflects the results of the study on the relationship between the development of maritime transport and the dynamics of economic growth in the countries of the Caspian Sea coast. Among other things, the authors analyzed the impact of maritime transport on the economic development of such countries as Russia, Azerbaijan, Turkmenistan, Kazakhstan and Iran. Special attention is paid to the study of the close relationship between the factors that negatively affect the economic growth of the countries under study and the internal factors that characterize the system of maritime transport and the formation of a system of performance indicators for the economies of the Caspian Sea. The results of the study showed that the implementation of projects to improve the development of maritime transport by the management creates conditions for sustainable economic growth of the countries in the Caspian basin.
