A new service has been launched in the TsON mobile application - "Car Purchase and Sale Agreement" 02.09.2025
From September 2, 2025, in order to digitalize public services and improve their quality, a new service for registration of vehicle purchase agreements has been launched in the PSC mobile application.Previously, to conclude a contract, citizens signed a written transaction form using a QR code in public service departments. Now this process is available through the Car Purchase and Sale Agreement service in the PSC application: the agreement is drawn up and signed with an electronic digital signature (EDS) of the seller and the buyer. Thus, the contract can be concluded in advance, even before visiting a specialized PSC, which significantly reduces the waiting time and simplifies the process of receiving the service. After registration in the application, the signed contract must be submitted to the Special Service Center to complete the vehicle registration procedure.In addition, the record of the concluded contract is permanently preserved in the history of the service, ensuring transparency and the possibility of subsequent verification. At the same time, the legal significance of the document, the protection of personal data and the elimination of errors are ensured through automatic verification of information and integration with government databases, which helps prevent common risks such as document forgery, technical errors when filling out and executing the contract.The cost of one contract is 1,500 tenge. We remind you that access to the service is provided after authorization by IIN and phone number in the PSC mobile application (App Store and Google Play).It is worth noting that the service provides an additional opportunity to make a deal, which citizens can use at will.Thus, the introduction of the Auto Purchase Agreement service becomes another step in the digitalization of public services and the creation of a convenient, safe and transparent digital environment for citizens of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Your Choice: pension benefits from UAPF or insurance company 02.09.2025
What You Need to Know About a Retirement Annuity?Kazakhstanis who have pension savings (PS) in UAPF can choose the method of receiving a pension: according to the schedule from UAPF until the funds are exhausted, for life through an insurance company, or using a combination of the above options. To receive stable monthly benefit payments throughout life or a guaranteed period, a pension annuity agreement is drawn up with an insurance company.What is a pension annuity? Pension annuity - This is an agreement between a citizen and a life insurance company, under which the insurance company undertakes to pay a monthly pension for life or until a certain age.Currently, the following types of pension annuities exist on the insurance market of Kazakhstan: an immediate pension annuity, under which payments begin immediately after the conclusion of the agreement, a deferred pension annuity, under which payments begin not immediately, but after a certain time specified in the agreement (this type of annuity allows you to increase the amount of future payments by investing funds during the deferment period), a joint (spousal) pension annuity, combining the pension income of two persons to receive lifetime payments (in the event of the death of one of the participants, the second continues to receive pension benefit payments. Conditions for concluding an annuity agreement:reaching the appropriate age. The age at which a citizen can enter into an annuity agreement depends on the type of annuity and the presence of compulsory occupational pension contributions (COPC):- Men can apply for an immediate pension annuity from the age of 55, women - from the age of 53 (from 2028, the female age will gradually increase and by 2031 it will reach 55 years). If there are COPCs paid for a period of at least 60 months, an immediate pension annuity can be purchased even earlier - from the age of 50 for both men and women (payments under the immediate annuity are made in all cases immediately after the conclusion of the contract).- Deferred annuity is issued to contributors of compulsory pension contributions (CPC), regardless of gender, from the age of 45, and representatives of harmful and dangerous professions for whom COPCs have been paid for at least 60 months - from the age of 40. Payments under the deferred annuity in all cases will begin from the age of 55.availability of a sufficient amount of PS, ensuring an insurance payment in the amount of not less than 70% of the subsistence minimum (SM) established for the relevant financial year by the law on the republican budget. In 2025, to receive the minimum monthly payment of 32,360 tenge, which is 70% of the SM, at least 9.1 million tenge for men and 11.9 million tenge for women are required.If the PS from CPC and/or COPC is not enough to issue an annuity, you can use savings from voluntary pension contributions (VPC). If savings are not enough even taking into account the amount of all types of contributions, you can issue a joint annuity with your spouse or close relatives (parents, children, adoptive parents, adopted children, full and half siblings, grandparents, grandchildren) or supplement the amount from your own funds. Key Features of a Retirement Annuity: it is possible to receive pension benefits before the official retirement age;payments are made until the end of life/guaranteed period even if their amount exceeds the amount of savings transferred to the insurance company;the pension amount is indexed annually by 7%;the beneficiary, when purchasing a pension annuity, transfers ownership of the savings to the insurance company, that is, he will not be able to use them for alternative needs, in the event of his death, the savings will not be inherited by relatives (while pension savings in UAPF are inherited). At the same time, within the framework of the pension annuity agreement, it is possible to provide for a guaranteed period of pension payments, during which certain payments will be transferred first to the beneficiary, and in the event of his death - to the heirs.Procedure for concluding an agreement. Restrictions on termination/modification of the agreementThe pension annuity agreement is concluded in writing. The basis for concluding the pension annuity agreement is an application to the insurance company of the CPC contributor (contributors) and (or) an individual for whom the COPC is transferred, containing the data necessary for calculating the insurance premium and identifying the policyholder (insured). You can get more complete information on the list of required documents and methods of submission on the UAPF website in the section "Services - Pension Annuity".For two years from the date of conclusion, the pension annuity agreement cannot be terminated or changed. After this period, despite the possibility of making changes to the agreement, it is not possible to return all funds to the account in UAPF: the insurance company must have an amount that ensures a lifetime monthly insurance payment of at least 70% of the PM in effect on the date of making changes.Termination of the agreement after two years is possible only if a new annuity agreement is concluded with another insurance company. In this case, the funds are transferred to a new insurance organization.You can calculate the amount sufficient for transfer to the insurance company, as well as compare the amounts of expected payments from the insurance company and from UAPF using the pension calculator posted on the enpf.kz website in the section "Online Services - Forecast Pension Calculator". Before entering into an agreement, it is important to carefully read its terms in order to make an informed and informed decision. REFERENCE: As of 01.01.2025, during 2024, 62,592 contributors transferred pension savings from UAPF to insurance organizations in the amount of 394.54 billion tenge. For 6 months of the current year, as of 01.07.2025, 33,543 contributors sent 151.78 billion tenge from UAPF to insurance organizations.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/akimat-beyneu/press/news/details/1064741?lang=kk

UNITY AND FRIENDSHIP ARE THE PILLARS OF SOCIAL STABILITY 02.09.2025
If we look at the history of mankind, we can see that the prosperity of any country depends primarily on peace and understanding between its people. Because without unity and mutual trust, no success will last long. Stability in society is a strong pillar of economic power, social progress, and even international prestige. Today, there are many countries in different parts of the world that are torn apart by discord. While interethnic conflict is escalating in one country, religious conflict is plunging society into crisis in another. In such a situation, Kazakhstan's decision to make unity and friendship the core of state policy is a wise decision based on the historical experience of our people. The hospitality and generosity of the Kazakh people, their support for ethnic groups that have fallen into the hands of fate, are the solid foundation of today's social harmony. During the difficult years of deportation in the 20th century, thousands of ethnic groups found refuge on Kazakh soil and started a new life. This is a historical lesson that teaches us the value of peace. Friendship is a noble quality that unites people for a common goal, strengthens trust and solidarity. Its significance is especially significant for multi-ethnic Kazakhstan. Today, representatives of more than 130 ethnic groups live in harmony in our country and contribute to development. This is evidence that friendship not only unites society, but also connects cultures and enriches the country spiritually. The achievements of independent Kazakhstan - the emergence of a new capital, increased international prestige, economic success - all came about thanks to unity. Because where there is division, strength is dissipated, where there is unity, the labor of every citizen is used for the development of the country. The Assembly of the People of Kazakhstan is a unique example of strengthening peace and harmony. It not only preserves the culture of ethnic groups, but also gives each of them the opportunity to contribute to the development of the state. The fact that countries around the world recognize Kazakhstan's experience as a model of interethnic peace is proof of this. Political systems may change, economies may fluctuate. But friendship and unity are eternal values that stand the test of time. They do not lose their significance from year to year, but rather grow stronger. Therefore, preserving unity is protecting the future, and promoting friendship is strengthening peaceful life. This is a common duty for all of us. #МыВместе #PeaceAndHarmony #PeaceForAll #TogetherForPeace #АНК30жил #АНК30лет #APK30years #АНК #ANK

Review of the investment portfolio managed by the NBRK and IPM as of August 1, 2025 UAPF JSC (hereinafter referred to as UAPF) presents a report on the management of pension assets by the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan (hereinafter referred to as NBRK) and investment portfolio managers (hereinafter referred to as IPM) on the enpf.kz website in the section "Statistics and Analytics - Investment Management of Pension Assets". The total volume of pension assets as of August 1, 2025, under the management of the NBRK and IPM amounted to KZT24,857.25 bln. As of this date, UAPF pension assets under the trust management of the NBRK, formed through compulsory pension contributions (hereinafter referred to as CPC), compulsory occupational pension contributions (hereinafter referred to as COPC), voluntary pension contributions (hereinafter referred to as VPC), amounted to about KZT24,283.88 bln[1]. The volume of pension assets formed through the employer’s compulsory pension contributions (hereinafter referred to as ECPC), which are in the trust management of the NBRK, is KZT505.92 bln.Pension assets under the management of IPM amounted to more than KZT67.45 bln. Investment portfolio of pension assets managed by the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan The National Bank, as a trustee of the UAPF pension assets, pursues a balanced investment policy: invests in various types of financial instruments by currencies, countries, sectors and issuers.The main areas of investment of pension assets formed through the CPC, COPC, VPC, as of August 1, 2025, are as follows: government securities of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan - 42.87%, bonds of quasi-public companies - 8.82%, bonds of second-tier banks of the Republic of Kazakhstan - 2.81%, shares and depositary receipts of issuers of the Republic of Kazakhstan - 1.86%, IFOs - 1.17%.The investment portfolio by currencies in which the financial instruments acquired through the CPC, COPC, and VPC are denominated, as of August 1, 2025, looks like this: investments in national currency - 57.23%, in US dollars - 42.76%, in other currencies - 0.003% of the pension asset portfolio.From the analysis of the structure of the income received, it follows that the income in the form of interest on securities, including on placed deposits and reverse repo transactions, amounted to KZT1,104.97 bln, income from the revaluation of foreign currency, excluding assets under external management, - KZT159.38 bln, income from assets under external management, including taking into account the exchange rate revaluation - KZT439.09 bln, other income - KZT5.01 bln. The market revaluation of securities was negative.The amount of accrued investment income over the past 12 months amounted to about KZT3.11 trln, the yield for this period was 14.74% with inflation at 11.80%.

Therefore, it is advisable to make an objective analysis of the amount of investment income for a period of at least one year. The main investment areas of ECPC as of August 1, 2025 are as follows: government securities of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan - 96.98%, deposits of the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan - 2.84%.
