Financial Monitoring Agency Addresses Kazakh Citizens Regarding Asset Transfer Allegations

in Politics / Kazakhstan - by


The Financial Monitoring Agency has issued a statement to Kazakh citizens denying the alleged fictitious transfer of assets by oligarch Kairat Boranbayev to the state. According to the agency's communication on March 28, 2024, the information circulating in some media about the transfer of assets does not correspond to reality. The process of transferring previously disclosed assets to state agencies has been completed.

Furthermore, the Financial Monitoring Agency informs that the re-registration process is underway for two objects. They urge the public to trust only official sources of information.

Kairat Boranbayev was sentenced to six years in prison on September 15, 2023. However, the return of numerous assets resulted in a mitigation of his sentence. On October 20, it was announced that the court granted Boranbayev's request and replaced the remaining sentence with house arrest. On November 6, the businessman was released from prison.
