In accordance with the Social Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan, the UAPF annually, no later than five working days after the official publication of the law on the republican budget for the next financial year, is obliged to publish in the media, as well as on its own Internet resource, the minimum adequacy thresholds (MAT) of pension savings, calculated for the coming year.Fulfilling this requirement, the UAPF publishes the MAT for 2025 and reports that the size of the MAT has not changed and remains at the 2024 level. Let us remind you that in 2024 the size of the MAT also did not increase.It should be noted that MAT is the minimum amount of pension savings (formed through compulsory pension contributions) required to ensure a monthly pension of no less than the minimum pension. This is an estimated amount of pension savings, which is determined based on socio-economic indicators, as well as projected calculations of future pension contributions (based on the minimum wage) and investment returns. In other words, the minimum adequacy threshold is the minimum that must remain in the account so that the contributor, upon reaching retirement age, receives pension benefits (taking into account the minimum basic pension benefit) of no less than the minimum pension.The MAT is calculated in accordance with the methodology for determining the minimum sufficiency threshold of pension savings (hereinafter referred to as the Methodology) (approved by the Decree of the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan dated 30.06.2023 No. 521 (hereinafter referred to as Resolution No. 521)).According to the Methodology, the following socio-economic indicators for 2025 were used to calculate the MAT for 2025[1]:1) minimum wage - 85,000 tenge;2) minimum state basic pension benefit - 32,360 tenge;3) minimum pension - 62,771 tenge;4) subsistence minimum for calculating the amount of basic social benefits - 46,228 tenge.Despite the increase in certain socio-economic indicators, the maintenance of the MAT at the same level (without an increase compared to 2024) is partly due to the fact that such important parameters as the minimum wage and the projected annual interest rate of return on pension savings remained unchanged. UAPF was founded on August 22, 2013 on the basis of GNPF APF JSC. The founder and shareholder of the UAPF is the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan represented by the State Institution Committee of State Property and Privatization of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Trust management of UAPF pension assets is carried out by the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan. In accordance with the pension legislation, the UAPF attracts compulsory pension contributions, employer’s compulsory pension contributions, compulsory occupational pension contributions, voluntary pension contributions, as well as carries out enrollment and accounting of voluntary pension contributions formed at the expense of the unclaimed amount of guaranteed compensation for the guaranteed deposit, transferred by the organization carrying out mandatory guarantee of deposits, in accordance with the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On mandatory guarantee of deposits placed in second-tier banks of the Republic of Kazakhstan", ensures the implementation of pension benefits. The Fund also carries out accounting of target assets and target requirements, accounting and crediting of target savings (TS) to target savings accounts, payments of TS to their recipients in bank accounts, accounting for returns of TS in the manner determined by the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan within the framework of the National Fund for Children program (More details at www.enpf.kz) [1] in accordance with the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On the Republican Budget for 2025-2027".Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/abay/press/news/details/899428

In 2023, the governor of the East Kazakhstan region, Yermek Kosherbayev, declared this year the "Year of Roads". During this year, a record 600 kilometers of roads were repaired for the region.- The routes for road repairs were chosen not only on the basis of economic feasibility, but also according to the wishes of motorists and residents of the East Kazakhstan region. Special attention was paid in the region to the repair and reconstruction of trails leading to popular tourist destinations, - said the head of the region Yermek Kosherbayev at a briefing in the Central Communications Service.Rural settlements did not stand aside either, this year in 79 small villages for the first time it is planned to gradually asphalt 120 km of central streets and install street lighting.This year, a large-scale repair took place on the republican highways passing through the territory of the region. In total, 392 km of roads are planned to be repaired in 2024-2025. As a result of the implementation of these projects, all unsatisfactory sections of highways of national importance will be brought into good condition.The average repair of the roadway is carried out on several sections of the national highway with a total length of 78 km within the framework of the republican budget. Among them: the Ust-Kamenogorsk- Ridder-gr. RF highway with a total length of 30 km (from Ust-Kamenogorsk to Mikhailovka village), Ust-Kamenogorsk-Semey with a length of 18 km (fromTavria to the village of Novo-Azovoye), Ust-Kamenogorsk- Shemonaiha- gr.

This includes the construction of a bridge, paving, as well as reinforcement work and improvement of road infrastructure. This road connects 3 districts and leads to one of the tourist attractions of Kazakhstan in Katon-Karagai district.Speaking of roads, it is impossible not to recall the completion of one of the largest transport and logistics projects in East Kazakhstan - the bridge over the Bukhtarma reservoir, which connects six districts at once and allows residents not to depend on climatic conditions and ferry crossing. It should be noted that the bridge united the two banks of the largest artificial reservoir and the distance that previously had to be overcome for hours is now passed in exactly four minutes.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/akimvko/press/news/details/898845

The tourism sector is one of the most dynamically developing in East Kazakhstan. Today, it is becoming a launching pad for the development of small and medium-sized businesses and a driver for its further development. A unique international tourism project is planned to be implemented on Lake Markakol. Kanas Lakes in SUAR and Markakol lakes in East Kazakhstan region are planned to be connected by one tourist route. Today, Kanas Lake in the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region of China is visited by up to 10 million domestic tourists annually. The relief and nature of these places are identical to Lake Markakol, while the lake of East Kazakhstan is many times larger, and therefore it has a huge tourist potential. Unfortunately, there is no necessary infrastructure on the lake yet, but such a combination with an already successful tourist project will give a new impetus to attract travelers to Markakol.- This project will attract thousands of tourists, as it will be completely unique. Now the issues of opening a new border crossing near the village of Terekty and building a road directly to the lake are being worked out," Governor of the East Kazakhstan region Yermek Kosherbayev said at a briefing in the Central Communications Service. It should be noted that a lot of work has been done in the region over the past few years to develop tourism in the region. In addition to infrastructure development, courses on meeting tourists and menu preparation are organized for entrepreneurs in the service sector. The brand events "Shygys Salburyny", "Altay Fest" are becoming the hallmark of the tourism industry of East Kazakhstan. The construction of airports in Katon-Karagai and Zaisan will certainly have a positive effect on the development of tourism in several regions of East Kazakhstan at once. The sites have already been identified, and the construction of air harbors will begin next year.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/akimvko/press/news/details/898848

"On behalf of the Head of State, the Ministry of Agriculture is taking measures to develop the processing of agricultural products and bring its share to 70% of the produced raw materials. A comprehensive plan for the development of processing of agricultural products until 2028 has been adopted, providing for new measures to support processing, the opening of new sales markets, as well as the application of protective measures to support Kazakhstani processors.It is planned to allocate 372 billion tenge for the implementation of the plan over 5 years, including 150 billion tenge for investment purposes and 222 billion tenge for working capital purposes," the Vice Minister said.Azat Sultanov also spoke about the program for preferential financing of processing enterprises for replenishment of working capital, which was launched this year.

The implementation of the Plan will increase the gross production of processed products by 1.4 times and also increase the share of processing of agricultural products of the agro-industrial complex," Azat Sultanov noted.The Ministry of Agriculture is constantly taking measures to create conditions for farmers. So, this year, for the first time, the volume of preferential loans for field work has been increased to 580 billion tenge, which allowed us to introduce modern agricultural technologies and significantly upgrade the technical park of our farmers.To expand the coverage of financing for farmers who have a shortage of collateral, a guarantee of up to 85% of the loan amount has been introduced. According to the program "Preferential leasing", 120 billion tenge was allocated at a "net" 5% per annum for the purchase of a wide range of the most necessary equipment of domestic production.As a result of the measures taken, the diversification of acreage in favor of highly profitable crops was successfully carried out, more than 1.2 million tons of mineral fertilizers were introduced, this is more than 2 times higher than last year, the share of elite seeds was increased from 7.1% to 9.5%, and the level of renewal of agricultural machinery 4.5% to 5.3%.At the end of November, early financing for spring field and harvesting operations in 2025 began.As part of the execution of the President's order, up to 700 billion tenge will be allocated for spring field and harvesting operations in 2025, of which about 560 billion tenge will be attracted from market sources of capital.The meeting participants asked questions about subsidizing the remuneration rate and investment subsidies related to meat exports to China, the work of the GISS portal, the sale of goods, etc. and we received comprehensive answers to them.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/moa/press/news/details/899293
