Asian Development Bank and Kazakhstan: Fact Sheet
Asian Development Bank | April 2011
Abstract
Updated yearly, this ADB Fact Sheet provides social and economic indicators on Kazakhstan as well as concise information on ADB's operations in the country and contact information.Since joining the Asian Development Bank (ADB) in 1994, Kazakhstan has received $2.14 billion in public sector loan commitments, making it ADB’s 12th largest borrower. Loan commitments cover 18 loans in the areas of agriculture and natural resources; education; finance; transport and communications; water supply, sanitation, and irrigation. Kazakhstan has made notable progress in achieving the Millennium Development Goals related to poverty, primary education, and gender equality. Since the implementation of the state poverty reduction program in 2002, a share of people with income lower than subsistence level declined more than four times, despite slowing during the crisis period.
