A meeting was convened by the Government today to address concerns regarding fire safety training and measures for flood prevention. Nurlybek Nalibayev, the regional Akim, participated in the meeting virtually. Following the Government's discussions, the regional leader conducted a subsequent meeting where he provided directives to the relevant industry officials concerning the topics that were discussed."According to statistics, 90% of emergency situations in the country occur as a result of fires. Given the dry and windy climate of our region, the risk of the occurrence and rapid spread of steppe fires is extremely high.To prevent steppe fires, constant monitoring and prompt action are necessary. Most forest and steppe fires occur due to non-compliance with fire safety rules by the public and businesses, as well as a lack of responsibility. Local farms must notify forestry agencies in advance before clearing land. Fire prevention measures must be strictly controlled. Due to natural and human factors, there is a high risk of dry grass fires along main and inter-district roads, as well as in crop areas. Strengthening control in forest areas and on agricultural lands is essential. Comprehensive measures to prevent floods are being implemented in the region. Ice drift began on the rivers on February 14, and they were completely cleared in March. The water level in the rivers was managed by diverting water into main canals and lakes. Efficient water use and ensuring safety in flood-prone areas are important. The issues discussed at today's meeting are relevant. They must be kept under strict control and addressed promptly," N. Nalibayev noted.It should be noted that 15 fire trucks, 10 drones, and 65 permanent fire brigades are involved in preventing forest fires. Over the past three years, funds have been allocated to strengthen the material and technical resources of the region's forestry services. This year, plans include the purchase of 62 units of equipment and about 80 tools. A reserve has been prepared for extinguishing forest and steppe fires, and 15 observation towers are on permanent duty. Additionally, 135 responsible organizations equipped with special equipment have been assigned to 29 potentially dangerous flood zones. They have 410 units of special equipment and 1,234 personnel at their disposal. There is a sufficient material and technical reserve to combat floods, including 129.7 tons of fuel, 95,110 bags, and other materials. Evacuation points for the population in case of floods have been prepared, with 61 collection points and 71 reception points for evacuees.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/kyzylorda/press/news/details/977143?lang=kk

According to the results of the analysis, it was found that over the past three years, no procurement services have been purchased, which led to a slowdown in the development of this industry.In this regard, the environmental prosecutor's office of Aktobe region held a meeting with authorized bodies and representatives of fish farms as part of the implementation of the ideology of "Law and Order".Currently, the Akimat allocates funds to include this item of expenditure in the public procurement plan for 2025.The proposal to create a fish nursery was supported.Today, most farms raise fish in ponds and open reservoirs, which makes it difficult to feed and treat them.Meanwhile, specialized nurseries are widely used in other regions, which have proven their effectiveness.It was found that fisheries management entities were not sufficiently aware of government support measures, in particular, about the possibilities of subsidies.Previously, the akimat received no more than three applications for subsidies annually, but after the explanatory work, 10 applications for the amount of 19 million tenge have already been approved.The work on the support and development of the fishing industry continues.Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/prokuratura-aktobe/press/news/details/977033?lang=kk

Агенттік банк секторындағы тәуекелге бағытталған қадағалаудың кезекті циклін аяқтады, оған бірнеше негізгі процедуралар кірді: кешенді SREP (Supervisory Review and Evaluation Process) бағалауы, активтердің сапасын тұрақты бағалау (AQR) және қадағалап стресс-тестілеуі (ҚСТ).SREP қадағалау моделі корпоративтік басқарудың сапасын арттыруға және бизнес-процестерді жетілдіруге бағытталған. 2024 жылы SREP бағалауы жаңартылған әдістеме негізінде жүргізілді, ол неғұрлым терең және жан-жақты талдауды көздейді. Бұл тәуекелдерді анықтау, бағалау және бақылау тиімділігін арттыруға мүмкіндік берді.AQR аясында банктердің қарыз портфелін жан-жақты талдау және резервтердің жеткіліктілігін бағалау жүргізілді. Жүргізілген ҚСТ банктік сектордың экономикалық және қаржылық дағдарыстарға қарсы тұрақтылығын бағалауға мүмкіндік берді. AQR және ҚСТ ауқымына банктердің жалпы активтерінен 85%-ын құрайтын 11 банк кірді. «2024 жылғы AQR және ҚСТ бағалауларының қорытындысы бойынша негізгі капиталдың жеткіліктілігі (k1) 15,0% құрады, бұл белгіленген минималды нормативтен – 5,5% – айтарлықтай жоғары. Қадағалау циклының қорытындысы бойынша алғаш рет банктердің капитал жеткіліктілігіне жеке үстемелер мен буферлер енгізілді. Бұл шаралар банктік сектордың қаржылық тұрақтылығын арттыруға және потенциалды тәуекелдерді жабу үшін қажетті капитал қорының жеткіліктілігін қамтамасыз етуге бағытталған», – деді Агенттік Төрағасының орынбасары Тимур Әбілқасымов.SREP және AQR нәтижелері бойынша қадағалаушы үстемелерді қолдану және банктердің капитал жеткіліктілігіне буферлер енгізу туралы шешімдер Агенттіктің пруденциялық реттеу және қаржы нарығын дамыту Комитетінің отырысында қабылданды. Барлық банктер қадағалаушы үстемені ескере отырып, минималды нормативтік талаптарды сақтай отырып, жеткілікті капитал қорын сақтап қалды.Тұрақты AQR-ға кіретін банктер үшін қадағалаушы үстемелердің диапазоны SREP және AQR нәтижелеріне байланысты 0-ден 6%-ға дейін құрайды. AQR-ға қатыспайтын банктер үшін үстемелер 0-ден 3%-ға дейін және тек SREP нәтижелері бойынша анықталады.ҚСТ нәтижелері бойынша буфер 0%-дан 3%-ға дейін өзгеріп, банктердің стресс-сценарийлерге ұшырау деңгейіне байланысты анықталады, ал қадағалаушы үстемелерден айырмашылығы, буфер тек банктердің таза табысын дивидендтер төлеуге бөлу шектелген жағдайда ескеріледі. «Банктерге стратегиялық және бюджет жоспарлау процестерінде, сондай-ақ тәуекелдерге деген көзқарасты анықтағанда қадағалаушы үстемені және буферді ескеру қажет. Агенттік банктерге тәуекелге бағытталған қадағалаудың кезекті циклі бойынша анықталған кемшіліктерді жою үшін талаптар мен ұсыныстар жіберді», – деп атап өтті Т. Әбілқасымов.SREP кешенді бағалау нәтижелері бойынша Агенттік бірінші есепті жариялады, ол қадағалаушы бағалаудың негізгі қорытындыларын және қолданылған әдістеме мен процедураны толық сипаттайды, бұл Қазақстанның банктік секторының тұрақтылық деңгейін тереңірек түсінуге мүмкіндік береді.Агенттіктің сайтында 2024 жылғы AQR және ҚСТ нәтижелері бойынша жылдық есептер де қолжетімді.https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/ardfm/documents/details/828364?lang=kkhttps://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/ardfm/documents/details/828357?lang=kk Сыртқы коммуникациялар басқармасы:press@finreg.kz  Source : https://www.gov.kz/memleket/entities/ardfm/press/news/details/976939?lang=kk
