In his Address to the People of Kazakhstan, President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev stressed the need to raise the country's investment policy to a new level. Equal attention to public investments and private business initiatives is a key condition for economic growth. The Head of State noted the need to establish close ties with large investors, as well as with representatives of medium and small businesses. This will allow us to identify specific goals and economic needs, clarify demand in the production sector. The concept of "investment order" should be formed in accordance with specific production needs. According to the President, for the development of the country's economy, investment policy must be specific, targeted and balanced. In this direction, partnership between the state and business plays an important role. In addition, the Head of State touched upon the issue of increasing the efficiency of the banking sector and the financial system. The National Bank and the Government must find effective ways to direct bank funds to the development of the real economy. This issue cannot be postponed - urgent decisions must be made. The President said that it is necessary to adopt a new law on banks. This law should meet the current needs of the economy and technological changes. The document should take into account issues such as strengthening competition, the entry of new financial organizations into the market, the digitalization and modernization of the financial system, as well as the regulation of digital assets. These initiatives of the Head of State will strengthen the economic stability of Kazakhstan and open up new investment opportunities. #PresidentialAddress #EconomicDevelopment #Address2025 #FinancialSystem

Kazakhstan has approved its first national standards in artificial intelligence (AI). This is an important step in implementing the Concept for the Development of Artificial Intelligence for 2024–2029, approved by the government.Seven standards have been developed that set uniform rules for everyone working with AI technologies—from developers and businesses to government agencies. They cover all key stages of the AI ​​lifecycle: from general concepts and system architecture to risk management and big data analysis.One of the key documents of the ST RK is ISO/IEC 5339. It describes general principles for all types of AI applications—from conversational systems like ChatGPT to industrial and medical solutions.One of the standards specifically notes the need to protect user privacy. This means not only the security of data used in system training and operation, but also the prevention of unauthorized access and ensuring that AI does not accidentally disclose personal information.The new standards could also form the basis for certifying organizations working with artificial intelligence. This will allow Kazakhstani companies to confirm compliance with international requirements and increase trust among partners and consumers both domestically and in foreign markets.Thus, the standards not only regulate technology, but also foster a culture of responsible and informed use of artificial intelligence, which is becoming a key condition for Kazakhstan's successful digital transformation.At the same time, work is underway to establish a testing and reference center for artificial intelligence, which will include an AI Standards Hub—a laboratory, certification, and testing center. The center will serve as a platform for collaboration with ISO, ITU, OECD, and other international organizations shaping the future of responsible use of artificial intelligence.Relevant government agencies, IT communities, and scientific organizations, as well as the National Information Technologies JSC and the Internet Association of Kazakhstan, actively participated in the development of the standards.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/mti-ktrm/press/news/details/1091791?lang=kk
