Abstract
This paper explores the optimization of financial instruments to achieve Sustainable Development Goal (SDG) 9.2.2, focusing on Special Economic Zones (SEZs) in Western Europe. Through synthetic data generation and financial instrument analysis, we evaluate the impact of SEZs on small-scale industry growth. Our findings reveal a significant correlation between favorable government policies and increased investment levels. We utilized a Random Forest regression model to predict growth, identifying key factors influencing economic performance. This research emphasizes the necessity of tailored financial solutions for SEZs, contributing to sustainable industrialization and inclusive economic growth.
