It is the largest, most resource-rich of the region’s five countries and tends to serve as a bellwether for the region’s politics. Kazakhstan is strategically and geographically the middleman between its fellow Central Asian states (all of which it borders except Tajikistan) and Russia and China. With an estimated 100 trillion cubic feet of natural gas and 27 billion barrels of oil, Kazakhstan boasts more energy reserves than all four of the other Central Asian countries combined. Kazakhstan was the first Central Asian country in which Westerners seriously began developing oil and natural gas wealth after the Soviet collapse. Because of this, Kazakhstan has received more foreign direct investment than any other former Soviet state (including Russia). And most other Central Asian states with energy resources — Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan, for example — must traverse Kazakhstan to reach their customers, whether those customers are Russia, China or Europe, making Kazakhstan essential to any outsider with designs on the region. But its geographic location and size have proved to be a mixed blessing. Kazakhstan is roughly one-third the size of the lower 48 U.S. states, but has only 5 percent of the U.S.

  • Kazakhstan Stock Exchange"
    JSC "KAZAKHSTAN STOCK EXCHANGE" PRESS - RELEASE Almaty February 5, 2013 Results of Kazakhstan Stock Exchange activities in 2012 HIGHLIGHTS: 1. Main projects of Kazakhstan Stock Exchange (KASE). 2. "People's IPO" on KASE and exchange trading technologies. 3. Performance indicators of the exchange and exchange market. *** Projects of the year Main projects implemented by KASE in 2012 include, in the first place, improvement of the Exchange's operational quality in order to align it with requirements of the new legislation on risk reduction. In the course of that work KASE had to notably change its organizational structure and internal regulatory base. The restructuring process turned out to be labour-intensive and influenced virtually all structural units of the Exchange. The most important project in this field is the implementation of a new system to monitor KASE members – their financial strength and solvency which are checked continuously. One of apparent results of that monitoring are the new 60 pages of Exchange members on KASE website disclosing a big volume of open data necessary for investors seeking a partner on Kazakhstan's financial market. Another remarkable project of the year was the implementation of the first stage of the "Peoples' IPO" program, the main nationwide project on Kazakhstan's stock market in 2012. During the preparation and conducting of the IPO the Exchange accomplished a lot of work, including measures on a scale unprecedented for Kazakhstan, which made the first share offering under the "People's IPO" a success. Due to the project's uniqueness many aspects of KASE activities were overhauled: rules of subscription were developed, special software (including a separate trading module) was designed, and a comprehensive testing of the trading system was conducted in terms of accepting and processing of a big number of orders.

In addition, the study details how Chinese government strategy has evolved from one of simply buying off key members of the Kazakh government in order to gain approval for investments to one of making institutions in the Kazakh state, such as Kaz- MunaiGas, stakeholders in the long-term success of the investment in order to secure protection for investments in a climate of political uncertainty.
