Leading economists discussed housing market trends in Kazakhstan. Will there be an increase in housing prices in Astana and Almaty, stagnation and the expectation of stabilization. Is it profitable to invest in real estate now? The impact of preferential programs and leases. Risks of DDU, unfinished buildings and shareholders. Problems of social housing and urban planning, urbanization and competent management. Opportunities for buying housing on benefits.
Hi! We return after a break (vacation, work trips). And we return in a slightly unusual format. Today there will be fewer primitive questions from the moderator, but more of a conversation between two expert economists. Eldar Shamsutdinov invited Askar Kysykov, Director of the TALAP Center for Applied Research, to visit. And an interesting (and most importantly not too "abstruse", as Eldar sometimes likes) conversation came out.
The events of the last two years, with major geopolitical upheavals, have posed a serious challenge for the countries of Central Asia –– Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, and Uzbekistan. These states have skillfully maneuvered the changing political landscape, adhering to a balanced foreign policy. They have adeptly avoided making unequivocal alliances with any sides and focused on economic cooperation.
The target of study will be the growth of the index of China in Kazakhstan in 2024, analysis of its dynamics in 2020.
