  • JSC Kazkommertsbank Annual Report for 2016
    JSC Kazkommertsbank Annual Report for 2016 July 2017 1 Address of the Management Due to continued complicated macroeconomic situation, devaluation of national currency, changes to regulation and tightened up competition the year 2016 became another ambiguous year for the whole banking sector of Kazakhstan in general and for Kazkommertsbank in particular. Adopted in August 2015 resolution of the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan and the National Bank of Kazakhstan on transition to the floating KZT exchange rate to compensate negative implications on the budget driven in turn by downturn of commodity prices resulted into weakening of local currency from KZT187 per US Dollar in August 2015 to KZT310-340 throughout 2016. Banking sector balance sheet demonstrated a substantial excess of FX liabilities vs assets and lack of hedging instruments. This resulted into a sharp growth of exchange rate and subsequent rise in interest expense all over the market. In addition to that, high funding cost and limited liquidity further worsened by outflow of customer accounts away from banking sector, high interest rates on deposits in KZT and lack of access to international capital markets resulted into contraction of lending to real economy. In turn, the rise in cost of funding driven by dried up liquidity in interbank market potentially gives rise to systemic risks, particularly related to ability of market participants to meet taken obligations. Besides, measures undertaken by the National Bank of Kazakhstan to strengthen Kazakhstani financial system led to tightening prudential requirements, particularly requirements on capital adequacy. This put shareholders and founders of banks to decide on additional capital injections.
