On September 7, 2026, amendments to the Social Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan came into force, expanding the options for contributors to manage their pension savings[1]. According to these amendments, the amount of pension savings transferred to a private investment portfolio manager (IPM) for trust management can now be up to 100% of the funds available in the contributor's (beneficiary's) individual pension savings account, including compulsory pension contributions (CPC), compulsory occupational pension contributions (COPC), and voluntary pension contributions (VPC).At this, CPC and VPC contributors, as well as individuals for whom COPC and VPC contributions are transferred, can independently determine the amount of their savings transferred to trust management, select one or more IPMs, and one or more investment portfolios in accordance with their financial goals.Pursuant to with the law, IPMs can create up to three investment portfolios: conservative, moderate, and high-risk. These portfolios vary in risk level, expected return, and investment terms. The ability to choose different investment portfolios is enshrined in Article 37-1 of the Social Code of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Requirements for their formation are determined by the authorized body for regulation, control, and supervision of the financial market and financial organizations.Full information on the procedure for transferring pension savings to investment portfolio trust managers and investment opportunities is available on the UAPF website and on the invest.enpf.kz platform.Thus, the pension system is gradually transforming from a model where contributors play a passive role to one that assumes conscious participation in managing their own long-term retirement savings. The consistent expansion of investment strategy options and the increased availability of information on pension asset management are creating conditions for more active participation by contributors in decisions related to the formation of their future retirement income.  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.

In his 2022 address, the Head of State put forward the idea of creating a program for the fair distribution of national wealth, one of the implementation directions of which is the “National Fund for Children” program. Under this project, citizens of Kazakhstan from birth until they reach the age of majority will receive funds annually starting in 2024, based on 50% of the average investment income of the National Fund. As part of this initiative, children under 18 will receive 50 percent of the investment income of the National Fund of Kazakhstan annually. In 2026, each child was credited with USD 130.71. For children who have been participating in the program for three years, the total amount of savings, taking into account the investment income received, amounted to USD 370.56. According to the UAPF, as of September 1, 2026, payments of targeted savings for improving housing conditions and paying for education amounted to USD 76142.45 thousand (365,967 recipients), including: - for the improvement of housing conditions -USD 50 433.4 thousand (241 284 recipients); - for education -USD 25709.05 thousand. (124,683 recipients). When can these funds be used? Upon reaching the age of 18, the savings will be transferred to individual accounts at the UAPF, and young people have the right to use them for: • improving housing conditions only in the Republic of Kazakhstan. • paying for education (both in the Republic of Kazakhstan and abroad). The accumulated amount from the UAPF account can be transferred to the chosen purpose through authorized operators – Otbasy Bank and Halyk Bank. You can check information about whether a child has participated in the program on the website kids.enpf.kz using the child’s IIN, in the personal account on the egov.kz portal, in the Halyk and Kaspi.kz apps. If the targeted savings are not claimed within 10 years after the child reaches the age of majority, they are credited to their individual pension account. Accruals are terminated: • in the event of death; • upon the entry into force of a court decision declaring a project participant dead; • in the event of loss of citizenship. In the event of death, heirs may apply to receive targeted savings from the Unified National Pension Fund in accordance with the procedure established by law. Using National Fund resources to support the younger generation of Kazakhstani citizens is a strategic decision aimed at the sustainable development of the country. The “National Fund for Children” program is an investment in the future of our country!Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/minfin/press/news/details/1296878?lang=ru

At the briefing of  the Central Communications Service, representatives of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan spoke about the digital transformation of the state property management system and the further development of the e-Qazyna.kz platform.Nurmakhan Adilbekov, Chairman of the Committee for State Property and Privatization of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan, and Zhanasyl Ospanov, Chairman of the Board of “Information and Accounting Center JSC,” informed about the key areas of this work.As part of the Year of Digitalization and Artificial Intelligence, the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan continues to improve digital tools for managing state assets.Today, the e-Qazyna.kz platform combines 40 digital services. They cover the accounting of state and quasi‑state organizations, electronic tenders, privatization, leasing and trust management of state property, monitoring of state property, and other processes.One of the key tasks is to transition from a fragmented system for tracking state assets to a unified digital system based on e-Qazyna.kz. The implementation of this initiative is included in the roadmap until 2029.Within the framework of this work, digital profiles of state property objects and management entities are being created. They will make it possible to track the life cycle of assets, use up‑to‑date photographs and geographical coordinates of the objects, and, in the future, data from space monitoring.A separate area is related to the digitalization of accounting for the state and quasi‑state sectors. It is planned to introduce cloud accounting, integrate e‑Qazyna.kz with the “e‑Minfin” system, and automate the intra‑corporate accounting of property of entities in the quasi‑state sector.The digitalization of accounting for national and strategic resources is ongoing. In the future, it is planned to create a unified digital database of the State Register, which will include information about land and water resources, the forest fund, groundwater, hydrocarbon deposits, and solid minerals.The next stage in the system’s development will be the introduction of artificial intelligence and Big Data technologies. Their use will make it possible to apply predictive analytics to forecast the wear and tear of assets, identify signs of inefficient use of property, and plan maintenance and modernization costs for state assets more accurately.Of the 79 functions of the State Property and Privatization Committee, 36 have the potential for digitalization. To date, 26 of them, or 72%, have been automated. In the third quarter of 2026, a pilot automation of another eight functions is planned, including electronic voting in the management bodies of joint‑stock companies and partnerships, as well as the approval of the charters and balance sheets of state‑owned enterprises.The digital profile of the balance holder will also be implemented in stages. In 2026, it will include buildings and structures; in 2027, land plots; and in 2028–2029, transport, equipment, and other types of assets.The development of e-Qazyna.kz is aimed at creating a unified digital ecosystem for managing state property. This will make it possible to improve the efficiency of using state assets, increase revenues from their use, and optimize maintenance costs.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/minfin/press/news/details/1296866?lang=ru
