President Kassym-Jomart Tokayev and the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi, Sheikh Khaled bin Mohammed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, visited the Astana International Financial Centre (AIFC).
The distinguished guests were briefed on the achievements of the financial centre and the operations of the Committee for the Regulation of Financial Services, the AIFC Exchange, the AIFC Court, and the International Arbitration Centre.
AIFC Governor Renat Bekturov presented to the President of Kazakhstan and the Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi opportunities for advancing investment cooperation.
Currently, 46 UAE-based companies are registered with the AIFC, operating in sectors such as finance and insurance, information and communication technologies, trade, transportation, manufacturing, and mining.
Furthermore, ties between the capital markets of Kazakhstan and the UAE are strengthening. On May 7 of this year, Nasdaq Dubai and the Astana International Exchange (AIX) announced the establishment of a direct link between their central securities depositories. In 2024, AIX joined Tabadul, the digital exchange hub created by the Abu Dhabi Securities Exchange (ADX).
