Deputy Minister: Strong Sectors Drive 6.3% Economic Growth in Kazakhstan

Kazakh Deputy Minister of National Economy Azamat Amrin has said that Kazakhstan’s economy expanded by 6.3 per cent in the first nine months of 2025.

Amrin made these remarks at a government meeting, The Caspian Post reports via Russian media.

He noted that more than 70 per cent of this growth originated from the industry, trade, and transport sectors, with investment continuing to play a crucial role in the expansion.

Fixed capital investment surged 13.5 per cent, totaling 13.8 trillion tenge (around $25.7 billion), while private sector investment rose by 7.8 per cent.

Last year, in 2024, Kazakhstan’s GDP grew by 4.8 per cent. Officials now project growth for 2025 to fall within the 5.5-6.5 per cent range.

Economic analysts and international institutions similarly forecast robust growth. According to the National Bank of Kazakhstan, the 2025 GDP outlook has been raised to 5.5-6.5 per cent, citing strong investment activity and resilient demand.

As the year progresses, authorities are expected to focus on sustaining momentum through structural reforms, diversifying growth drivers, and managing inflationary pressures.
