IMF warns of risks to Kazakhstan's economic growth outlook
The IMF highlights risks to Kazakhstan's economic growth, including external economic slowdowns and domestic fiscal policy issues, which could threaten stability and investor confidence.
The International Monetary Fund has warned that risks to Kazakhstan's economic outlook remain tilted to the downside. External risks include a slowdown in major economies, intensification of regional conflicts, secondary sanctions, and higher commodity price volatility or export pipeline disruptions. On the domestic front, key risks involve delays in large infrastructure projects, failure to reintroduce fiscal discipline which could fuel inflation pressures, and a potential resurgence of social tensions. The IMF recommends tighter monetary policy, fiscal reforms, and greater investment in infrastructure and digitalization to ensure sustainable growth.
