AKIPRESS.COM - The KazAgro JSC national holding has attracted $1.2 billion of foreign investments for financing the farmers in Kazakhstan, said deputy chairman of the holding Kairat Aituganov in an interview with the press service of the Prime Minister of Kazakhstan.

"Last year we attracted 1 billion dollars at fairly low interest rates. In addition, we received 100 million dollars before the new year, and 100 million dollars just two weeks ago. Thus, over the past six months we have attracted 1.2 billion dollars in Western markets," Aituganov noted.

The KazAgro implements the state policy on the development of Kazakhstan’s agro-industrial complex by ensuring effective investment assets management of the companies included in its structure.
