The trading sessions are initiated by Halyk Finance JSC, a subsidiary of the National Bank of Kazakhstan, and First Heartland Jusan Invest JSC.
Bond placement is one of the tools for attracting long-term financing as part of the Baiterek holding's investment activities. Such steps by national development institutions increase the liquidity of the domestic securities market and contribute to the development of the country's stock market infrastructure.
