Kazakhstan ranks among the world’s top 50 countries in
foreign direct investment (FDI) volume. In Central Asia, the country leads in
this indicator, accounting for over 60% of all incoming investment in the
region. To attract investment, it is essential to establish a favourable
climate, with stability and legal protection of business rights being key
factors. Experts discussed this at an investment forum in Astana. According to
the Kazakh Supreme Court, the Astana Administrative Court resolved nearly 80%
of disputes in favour of foreign investors in 2024, preserving approximately
100 billion tenge for them. This demonstrates the judiciary’s impartiality in
administering justice and the effective implementation of Kazakhstan’s legal
framework.
«Over 950 investment projects worth 44 trillion tenge, or
more than $80 billion, have been registered on the digital investment platform.
These projects are under constant monitoring and oversight. Investors
bring capital and invest in our
country’s economy—something we must always keep in mind. Today, countries
worldwide are competing for investors. We understand this, which is why we must
make every effort to create a favorable investment climate,» said Gabidulla Ospankulov,
Chairman of the Investment Committee at the Kazakh Foreign Ministry.
Last year, over 100 investment contracts worth three
trillion tenge were signed in the country. According to the Kazakh Foreign
Ministry, the pool of investor countries is expanding, with strong interest
from businesspeople in Arab countries. The most popular sectors for investment
include mineral and rare metal extraction, logistics, processing, and
mechanical engineering.
