On June 7, the Astana International Financial Centre (hereinafter – AIFC) hosted the “Astana Finance Days: At the Forefront of Finance” conference. This event, which has become an annual tradition for over 5 years, serves as the primary platform for networking and discussing current issues, trends, and opportunities in Kazakhstan’s financial industry.
The 28 panel sessions, covering five thematic areas: “AIFC Products,” “Jurisdiction and Regulation,” “Innovation and Industry Potential,” “Green Growth,” and “Capital Markets,” were attended by 143 foreign and Kazakhstani speakers.
Renat Bekturov, the AIFC Governor, opened the conference with a welcome speech during the business breakfast on “Capital Mobility and Financial Connectivity.” In his speech, he outlined three strategic pillars that will guide the AIFC’s direction in the forthcoming years: facilitating foreign direct investment inflows, developing a dynamic securities market, and strengthening the position of AIFC abroad as a regional financial hub.
During the conference, Astana International Exchange (AIX) and Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX) signed an agreement aimed at enhancing cooperation and expand bilateral relations. The exchanges agreed to establish basis for accessing investors to mutual stock markets via Tabadul platform developed by the ADX.
Nursultan Moldakhmetov, the managing partner of UPPERCASE LEGAL offices in Kazakhstan, participated in the forum and also held a series of meetings with representatives of businesses and government officials.
