As part of outreach work among the population, on March 13, 2025, UAPF JSC will hold an Open Doors Day on the topic “What benefits can be received from the UAPF and how to calculate your future pension?”Pension benefits are the result of pension savings and the result of labor activity of citizens. Pension provision of Kazakhstanis at the present stage is carried out from two sources. These are benefit payments from the state budget (basic and solidarity pensions), pension benefits from the Unified Accumulative Pension Fund at the expense of individual compulsory pension contributions (CPC) of the employee and, in certain cases, compulsory occupational pension contributions (COPC) for workers employed in hazardous production, mandatory employer compulsory pension contributions (ECPC) for workers born in 1975 and later, as well as voluntary pension savings of citizens (VPC). At an online meeting on an open day organized by the UAPF, we will talk about pension benefits from the UAPF, where Fund specialists will talk about their types: in connection with reaching retirement age; establishing disability of the first and second groups, if the disability is established indefinitely; the death of the CPC contributor, an individual for whom the COPC, VPC, or the beneficiary of pension benefits are transferred; moving to a permanent place of residence outside of Kazakhstan; persons who have reached the age of 55, for whom the COPC has been paid in total for at least 84 months at the time of applying for a pension benefit; citizens of the EAEU member states. It will also be explained how the amount of pension benefits is calculated, what is the procedure for receiving lump-sum and monthly benefits, what requirements exist for retirement and the factors affecting its size, what options are available for receiving payments from pension savings formed in the funded system, how you can develop a personal pension savings plan, etc. Particular attention will be paid to explaining the concept of the “income replacement ratio,” which determines what portion of the contributor’s earnings will be received as a pension.

The campaign emphasizes the importance of caring for the older generation and strengthening social unity in society.During the war, Nikolai Alexandrovich served in the border troops and received a number of awards. As the veteran's son noted, his father was always distinguished by his strong character, loyalty and hard work. It is worth noting that students from school No. 49 often visit Nikolai Alexandrovich's house, help him and clean up the yard.The veteran is not left without attention by employees of social protection structures, as well as servicemen of the Turksib Military Committee, who monitor his health, solve household problems, provide medical services and material support.Nikolai Taratunin's son, expressing gratitude to the volunteers, singled out the symbolic holding of the campaign on Thanksgiving Day.As part of the “Help Your Neighbor” project, Almaty volunteers visited the house of 90-year-old Tamara Georgievna Ufimtseva.

The second meeting of the Expert Council under the Ministry of National Economy was dedicated to discussing the financing of the real sector of the economy. It was attended by 20 people, half of whom were independent experts.As Vice-Prime Minister – minister of national economy Serik Zhumangarin noted, the active start of financing the real sector of the economy is the third stage of economic reform aimed at increasing Kazakhstan's GDP. The first is the adoption of the new Budget Code, the second is work on the draft Tax Code.Vice-Minister of national economy Arman Kasenov spoke about the government's main initiatives for financing projects in the real sector of the economy.Currently, the ratio of investment to GDP is at the level of 14-15% and is objectively low. To achieve higher rates of economic growth and the task set by the Head of State – to bring GDP to $450 billion by 2029 – investments should increase by 2,75 times, from $40 billion in 2024 to $103 billion in 2029. And this needs to be ensured through initiatives that the government is now proposing – to allocate 1 trillion tenge through Baiterek Holding to provide business lending for 8 trillion tenge», - said the vice-minister.In addition to increasing the volume of investments in investment projects, the vice-minister outlined another, no less important problem – the lack of a sufficient number of high-quality investment projects.The problem of financing is a partial problem. Another significant one is the shortage of quality projects. This is also noted by international financial development institutions. And when we talk about increasing project financing from $40 billion to $103 billion, we understand that the task is not only in finance, but also in the quality of investments», - emphasized Arman Kasenov.The main points of growth are high-performance export-oriented projects. These are metal processing, oil and gas, agriculture and food production, petrochemistry and coal chemistry, and others.Head of Baiterek Holding Rustam Karagoishin spoke about the holding's financing model, which includes 60% market funding and 40% budget lending. In 2025, the total volume of financing from Baiterek will amount to 8 trillion tenge, of which 3,75 trillion tenge will be provided in national currency at a rate of 12,6%, 2.25 trillion also in national currency at a market rate, and 2 trillion in foreign currency.Our main task is to unify rates at 12.6% for the final consumer. This unification will allow second-tier banks to participate in almost all areas where Baiterek is present today, - Rustam Karagoishin noted. - Over time, when the base rate decreases to an acceptable level, banks will take the lion's share of financing the economy. And Baiterek and other development institutions will become a kind of instrument for large-scale niche projects focused on export.Many questions and suggestions were voiced by independent experts. In particular, CEO of AERC Zhanibek Aigazin asked how the priority of projects for preferential financing is determined and how they are evaluated from the point of view of return on investment and contribution to GDP growth. The share of the manufacturing industry in GDP is 12%, and this share is not growing significantly, despite our efforts. He suggested paying special attention to the development and expansion of infrastructure capacity, which, in his opinion, will have a greater overall effect on the economy, since we all use infrastructure.Serik Zhumangarin replied that agriculture, mining, and trade provide the greatest return on investment in terms of GVA today. Transport and warehousing are emerging as active growth drivers. Priority in financing through Baiterek will be given to projects for creating high value-added products in metallurgy, petrochemistry and coal chemistry, food production, IT, AI, logistics and others. And for infrastructure development, there is a national infrastructure plan, according to which it is planned to modernize, build and repair 13 thousand km of roads, repair about 1480 km of railway tracks and build new railway lines already this year.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/economy/press/news/details/962390?lang=kk
