Kazakhstan continues to spend its savings from the National Fund, strategy that has already affected the country’s economy. The government must show much more financial discipline. The only good cause for the withdrawal of money from the National Fund is the implementation of strategic goals, according to Maulen Ashimbayev, speaker of the Senate of Kazakhstan.
«Over the past eight years, the National Fund’s assets decreased from $73 billion to $57 billion. This trend isn’t good. We all need to show more financial discipline in the near future,» he said at the plenary session of the Senate.
