State and Business in Partnership: Export in the Context of Economic Transformation
JSC “Export Credit Agency of Kazakhstan” took part in the CFO Forum, which brought together representatives of government agencies, the financial sector, real-sector enterprises, as well as leading industry experts and business associations of the country.
The discussion focused on key structural changes expected to shape Kazakhstan’s economy by 2026, including the impact of global market trends, monetary policy parameters, fiscal reforms, and the ongoing energy transition.
The CFO Forum is organized by Fin Club — a professional association of financial specialists aimed at developing competencies and strengthening financial expertise within the business community. As highlighted in the opening remarks, the rapid transformation of the economic landscape requires specialists capable of going beyond quantitative indicators — turning large volumes of data into strategic decisions and transforming risks into opportunities for sustainable growth. These are the leaders who define long-term competitiveness of companies and reinforce the contribution of the real sector to national economic development.
During the panel session “State and Business — Partnership for Growth”, Deputy Chairperson of the Management Board of ECA, Madina Erzhanova, presented a range of financial and insurance support instruments offered by the agency, emphasizing its role in strengthening cooperation between the public and private sectors.
In her speech, M. Erzhanova noted:
“Amid global competition, the development of non-commodity exports and services is one of the key factors for sustainable economic growth and diversification. Effective coordination between the public and private sectors is critically important. The Export Credit Agency of Kazakhstan acts as a systemic mechanism that aligns the state’s strategic priorities with the practical needs of businesses engaged in foreign economic activities. We are ready to provide comprehensive support to enterprises in the manufacturing sector as they implement export contracts. Our toolkit includes more than 20 instruments tailored to the modern requirements of the global market and the current challenges of the external environment.”
