Kazakhstan’s economy demonstrated robust growth of 4.2% during the first nine months of 2026, according to Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of National Economy Serik Zhumangarin. This expansion is primarily attributed to the performance of non-oil sectors, showcasing a diversification of the country’s economic base. Notably, the non-resource sector experienced a growth rate of 5.4%. Rising private investment also played a key role in driving this positive economic trend, indicating increased confidence in the Kazakh economy. Expanding industrial production, alongside growth in construction, transport services, and trade, further contributed to the overall economic performance in Kazakhstan. The information was shared during a government meeting in Astana on October 13th. These figures suggest a positive trajectory for Kazakhstan’s economic development.
