Geneva, 29 May 2026 – The International Telecommunication Union (ITU), the United Nations specialized agency for information and communication technologies, has officially published information on a new agreement between Kazakhstan and the Russian Federation concerning the joint use of the "7" numbering zone. The publication appeared in the ITU Operational Bulletin on 1 June 2026. The agreement was concluded for an indefinite period and entered into force on 3 December 2025.The agreement concerns the international dialing code "+7", which is jointly used by Kazakhstan and Russia. The new arrangement formally establishes Kazakhstan as an equal partner and defines the specific numbering ranges assigned to the country: +7 0, +7 6, and +7 7.Previously, the arrangement existed at the level of telecommunications administrations. The new agreement has been concluded at the governmental level between the two countries, thereby granting it a higher interstate status and providing stronger safeguards for Kazakhstan's interests.The guarantees of stability have also been strengthened. While either party could previously withdraw from the agreement with six months' notice, the notification period has now been extended to 24 months. For citizens and telecommunications operators, this means that the existing telephone numbering system will remain predictable and secure for years to come.The authorized body on behalf of Kazakhstan is the Ministry of Artificial Intelligence and Digital Development of the Republic of Kazakhstan.The formal recognition of these arrangements within the ITU framework represents another important step in strengthening Kazakhstan's position in the international governance of telecommunications resources and in safeguarding its national interests in the digital sphere.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/mfa-wto/press/news/details/1233061?lang=ru

   Investment income for investors is generated through the management of pension assets by the National Bank of Kazakhstan (NBRK) and private investment portfolio managers (IPMs).Based on the NBRK's investment activities in managing pension assets formed through mandatory pension contributions (MPCs), mandatory professional pension contributions (MPPCs), and voluntary pension contributions (VPCs), the accrued investment income for the past 12 months from May 2025 to April 2026 amounted to approximately 2.00 trillion tenge, with a return of 8.57% for this period. For pension assets formed through mandatory employer pension contributions (MPECs), accrued investment income as of May 1, 2026, over the past 12 months amounted to 108.19 billion tenge, with a return of 17.49%.As a reminder, trustees adhere to a balanced investment policy, investing pension assets in various types of financial instruments across currencies, countries, economic sectors, and issuers. Investment income is generated from various sources: fees on securities, deposits, and other transactions, market and currency revaluations of financial instruments, assets under external management, etc. The amount of investment income depends on a variety of factors, including changes in the market value of financial instruments, exchange rate fluctuations, inflation, dividend payments, and other market conditions. Therefore, returns may increase or decrease over different periods, which, in turn, affects the total amount of pension savings for contributors. The main reason for the decrease in investment income since the beginning of this year is the negative exchange rate revaluation of foreign currency assets due to the appreciation of the tenge against the US dollar from 505.53 to 462.91 tenge per US dollar.Despite financial market volatility, positive investment income and a real return on pension savings are ensured in the medium and long term. The accumulated investment return since the inception of the funded pension system in 1998 as of May 1, 2026, was 1,060.20%, with inflation for the entire period at 979.41%.As of May 1, 2026, the net investment income earned by the NBRK since April 1, 2014 (after the consolidation of pension assets into the UAPF) amounted to 10.21 trillion tenge. Taking into account payments made, its share of the total pension savings of contributors (recipients) is 39.7%, demonstrating the significant role of investment activity in the structure of citizens' savings.It is important to note that the return on pension assets over specific short-term periods is not an indicator of their management effectiveness, as income from financial instruments and other transactions accrued over a short period does not always cover fluctuations in the value of securities and exchange rates during that period. Therefore, it is advisable to conduct an objective analysis of investment income over a longer period.As a reminder, investors have the right to transfer a portion of their pension assets (up to 50% of pension savings from mandatory pension contributions and up to 100% of pension savings from voluntary pension contributions) to a private investment portfolio manager (PIPM) that meets the regulator's requirements.Compared to the more conservative management of the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan, aimed at preserving pension assets and ensuring their positive long-term returns, the investment declarations of the PIP and the regulator's requirements provide for broader investment opportunities for PIPs to increase the return on pension assets (although the risks in PIPs are also higher).The entire investment management and accounting system for pension assets is transparent: each investor can view their investment income in their personal account on the enpf.kz website or in the mobile app.Information on the investment management of ENPF pension assets and the financial instruments in which ENPF pension assets are invested is published on the official ENPF website in the "Statistics and Analytics/Investment Management of Pension Assets" section, as well as on the portal.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/abay-kurchatov/press/news/details/1231410?lang=ru

Проект охватывает треть территории Гонконга и предусматривает создание более 3 тыс. га новых земель, включая около 800 гектаров промышленной зоны. Отмечено, что индустриальный парк может стать площадкой для выхода казахстанских и центральноазиатских компаний на рынок материкового Китая через Гонконг как международный финансовый и торговый хаб.Для инвесторов предлагаются различные механизмы сотрудничества, включая государственно-частное партнерство, создание совместных предприятий, аренду производственных площадок и соинвестирование. Дополнительными преимуществами являются развитая финансовая инфраструктура, применение английского общего права и комплексная экосистема поддержки бизнеса.Серик Жумангарин отметил, что благодаря уникальному опыту экономического развития Гонконг стал одним из ведущих финансовых, торговых и логистических центров мира.«Мы видим значительный потенциал для расширения участия гонконгских партнеров в реализации проектов в приоритетных секторах экономики Казахстана. Казахстан остается надежной и стабильной площадкой для инвестиций, обладая высокой кредитоспособностью и значительными международными резервами», — подчеркнул вице-премьер Казахстана.Он отметил, что институты развития Казахстана готовы активно привлекать иностранное финансирование для реализации крупных проектов. В частности, холдинг «Байтерек», имеющий кредитные рейтинги на уровне суверенного рейтинга страны, способен ежегодно обеспечивать инвестиционное финансирование в объеме до $15-20 млрд и при необходимости выступать финансовым соинвестором с долей участия до 49% в капитале проектов.По словам Серика Жумангарина, особый интерес представляет развитие сотрудничества с финансовыми институтами и инвестиционным сообществом Гонконга. Перспективными направлениями являются выпуск облигаций, привлечение финансирования в китайских юанях, листинг казахстанских компаний на Гонконгской фондовой бирже, а также совместная реализация крупных инвестиционных проектов.Как заявил Глава администрации Гонконга Джон Ли, регион готов предложить казахстанскому бизнесу доступ к международным финансовым рынкам, инфраструктуре Района Большого залива Китая и возможностям Северного мегаполиса – нового центра инноваций, науки и технологий.Одним из успешных примеров сотрудничества является размещение Банком Развития Казахстана еврооблигаций, номинированных в китайских юанях, с листингом на Гонконгской и Казахстанской фондовых биржах.В качестве еще одного практического инструмента рассматривается фонд Adal Fund L.P. с целевым объемом до $1 млрд, ориентированный на развитие экспортного сельского хозяйства, глубокую переработку продукции АПК и консолидацию отечественных производителей. «За последние 20 лет Казахстан привлек более $445 млрд прямых иностранных инвестиций, в том числе около $30 млрд из Китая. Объем инвестиций из Гонконга в экономику Казахстана достиг почти $740 млн. Мы заинтересованы в дальнейшем укреплении партнерства и создании новых инвестиционных возможностей для бизнеса наших стран», — отметил Серик Жумангарин.Председатель Совета по развитию торговли Гонконга (HKTDC) Фредерик Ма подчеркнул, что делегация объединила ведущих представителей бизнеса Гонконга и материкового Китая, готовых к реализации совместных проектов с казахстанскими партнерами.По его словам, Совет по развитию торговли Гонконга на протяжении 60 лет содействует развитию международных торговых связей и сегодня располагает сетью из 51 офиса по всему миру, включая представительство в Алматы, которое оказывает поддержку как гонконгским инвесторам, выходящим на рынок Казахстана, так и казахстанским компаниям, заинтересованным в расширении присутствия в Азии.По итогам визита бизнес-делегации были подписаны 4 межправительственных меморандума о взаимопонимании,  42 соглашений и меморандумов между компаниями и организациями Казахстана, Гонконга и материкового Китая.

 UAPF branches have been frequently contacted by contributors claiming to be failing to pay compulsory pension contributions. Fraudsters, posing as Fund employees, call and report the discovery of several years of work experience not included in the total length of service for pension calculations, offering to recalculate their pensions upward.How do the scammers operate?To resolve these issues, and to establish a more trusting relationship, the scammers provide the address and invite the beneficiaries to actual Fund branches. According to the contributors/ beneficiaries, for supposed convenience and faster service, the scammers offer to reserve an online queue and ask for a code from an SMS message. Unfortunately, some recipients have already provided the codes to the scammers.​ Important: UAPF employees do not call or request SMS codes, passwords, card details, or other confidential information by phone, email, or messaging apps. UAPF provides all services completely free of charge. Pension benefits are processed strictly in accordance with established legal procedures.

The UAPF continuously conducts outreach efforts on the need for both beneficiaries and heirs of deceased individuals with UAPF savings to claim their pension benefis in a timely manner.Every year, the UAPF verifies with the State Corporation "Government for Citizens" the records of individuals who have reached retirement age and who have pension savings through compulsory pension contributions (CPCs) and compulsory occupational pension contributions (COPCs) to the UAPF and who have not applied to the UAPF for their benefit. These individuals are verified in the information system of the authorized body in the sphere of social protection of the population for pension benefits assigned from budgetary funds based on age, length of service, and the state basic pension benefit.Since March of this year, a no-application procedure for pension benefits through voluntary pension contributions (VPC) has been introduced for individuals who have reached retirement age and have pension savings in the UAPF through VPC, including those who have not applied to the UAPF for payment due to reaching the age of fifty or disability. This procedure also requires an annual reconciliation with the Government for Citizens State Corporation.Based on the results of the annual reconciliation, the UAPF makes pension benefit payments to beneficiaies proactively (without an application) through the State Corporation. This means that pensioners receiving a pension from the state budget begin receiving payments from the UAPF if they have pension savings formed through the CPC, COPC, and VPC.StatisticsAs of May 1, 2026, the total amount of unclaimed pension savings in individual pension savings accounts (IPSAs) for accounting for the compulsory pension contributions of 279,041 individuals who have reached the generally established retirement age is approximately 45 billion tenge. Of these, according to information obtained by UAPF from government information systems, the following are true:- 155,217 individuals are deceased and their pension savings can be claimed by their heirs;- 61,459 individuals have registered for permanent residence outside the Republic of Kazakhstan in accordance with the procedure established by law;- 62,365 individuals have not yet applied to the State Corporation (PSC at their place of residence) to apply for their old-age pensions.How to receive pension benefits?Let us remind you that pension savings are subject to accounting in the IPSA of contributors (beneficiaries) in the UAPF, continue to be invested and remain in the IPSA of contributors until they are claimed by the beneficiaries or their heirs (in the event of the death of the beneficiary).Upon reaching the generally established retirement ageTo claim pension benefits from the UAPF upon reaching retirement age, as well as basic and solidarity pensions from the state budget, beneficiaries must contact the State Corporation "Government for Citizens" (PSC) at their place of residence.If a beneficiary has VPC pension savings in the UAPF for which they have not previously applied (due to reaching age 50 or disability), they will also be assigned pension benefits from the UAPF through the VPC.When leaving for permanent residenceForeigners and stateless persons who have permanently resided outside the Republic of Kazakhstan and who have pension savings in the UAPF may exercise their right to pension benefits from the UAPF in connection with their departure for permanent residence outside the Republic of Kazakhstan, unless otherwise provided by the laws of the Republic of Kazakhstan and international treaties ratified by the Republic of Kazakhstan.In connection with the death of a person with pension savingsIn the event of the death of a person with pension savings in the UAPF, their UAPF family members are paid a one-time funeral payment from the deceased person's pension savings up to an amount equal to 94 times the monthly calculation index established for the relevant financial year by the law on the republican budget, but no more than the deceased person's available IPSA funds.Pension and targeted savings are also inherited in accordance with the procedures established by the legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan.
