The parties intend to share information about promising analytical, statistical and legal investment, best practices in project planning and implementation, and cooperation with international development institutions.

“We are interested in preparing and running investment projects in Kazakhstan, particularly those with an integration component. We will conduct joint expert research and use its results to develop such projects. Our partnership is aimed at fostering long-term, efficient and mutually beneficial cooperation,” Amangeldy Issenov, Deputy Chairman of the EDB Management Board, comments.
