Kazakhstan’s Microfinance Sector Adds 44.3% in Assets: Emerging Markets Drive Growth
No comments · Posted by Alex Smirnov in Economy
Intro
Microfinance institutions in Kazakhstan enjoyed a banner year in terms of asset growth, according to a new report from the National Bank of Kazakhstan. The sector as a whole saw assets grow by 44.3%, thanks largely to rising demand from emerging markets. This is great news for the country’s small businesses and entrepreneurs, who are increasingly able to access the capital they need to grow and expand.
Growth During the Quarantine
Kazakhstan’s microfinance sector has seen significant growth during the quarantine period. The number of microfinance organizations operating in the country has increased by 20%, and the average loan size has increased by 30%. The sector has also seen an increase in the number of new clients, with the majority of new clients being women. This growth is largely due to the fact that many Kazakhs have lost their jobs or had their income reduced due to the pandemic. As a result, microfinance organizations have been able to provide much-needed financial assistance to many families. The sector is expected to continue to grow in the coming months, as more and more Kazakhs turn to microfinance for financial assistance.

The chalk mountains of Akzhar are one of the brightest, in the truest sense of the word, natural attractions of the endless expanses of Saryarka (Kazakh Upland) – an ancient, heavily eroded mountainous region in the central part of Kazakhstan.
The highest mountains are located in the east of Saryarka and the red-yellow Akzhar mountains can be found in the extreme southwest, on the border of the Karagandy and Kostanay regions. Akzhar Mountains on Google Maps. Photos by: Evgeniy Drobotenko.

Lake Kaindy is located in the south-east of Kazakhstan in one of the gorges of the Kungey-Alatau mountain system at an altitude of 1,667 meters above sea level. The lake was formed as a result of the powerful Kemin earthquake in 1911.
The main feature of this unique natural reservoir is the trunks of the Tien Shan spruces, which protrude directly from the water. Before the earthquake, there was a spruce forest in the gorge. Scientists say that these trunks are about 150-200 years old. The wood is practically petrified and does not decompose.

No comments · Posted by Sergei Rzhevsky in Nature, Regions, Travel
Urochishche Boszhira is one of the most beautiful places in Kazakhstan. It is a whole range of rock formations of various sizes and shapes located at the bottom of a huge canyon in the western part of the Ustyurt plateau on the Mangyshlak peninsula in Mangystau Oblast of southwestern Kazakhstan.
Boszhira is huge. It will take more than one day to explore it. The weather in Mangyshlak is harsh and unpredictable. The best time to travel to Boszhira is summer. From autumn to mid-spring it often rains here washing out already bad roads. Boszhira on Google Maps. Photos by: Alexey Zhirukhin.
