98.6% of services provided by UAPF to the population since the beginning of the year were carried out in digital format
The UAPF is the single operator of Kazakhstan's funded pension system, ensuring the reliability and transparency of pension savings. Its primary objective is to accumulate citizens' pension savings and ensure their future benefits. The Fund's services help citizens not only accumulate the necessary funds for a decent retirement but also actively participate in financial planning for their future. The UAPF provides various digital services to Kazakhstanis and continues to develop them, adapting to customer needs. The 24/7 availability of the Fund's services on its website and mobile app is a key factor in increasing contributor interest. From January 1, 2026, to July 31, 2026, the Fund provided 32.4 million services to the population. Of these, 20.7 million were provided electronically, and 11.0 million were provided automatically. Thus, the share of services provided automatically, electronically, and remotely amounted to 98.6% of the total. 454,400 services were provided in person, including 443,100 directly at the Fund's offices.. As a reminder, all pension accounts are opened automatically in the UAPF upon receipt of the first contribution. Target requirements are also automatically calculated for citizens of the Republic of Kazakhstan under 18 years of age, and target savings accounts (TSAs) are opened to record and pay out targeted savings to adult recipients of targeted savings under the National Fund for Children program. During the reporting period, the total number of automatically opened individual pension savings accounts (IPSAs) for all types of individual pension contributions, as well as notional pension savings accounts (NPSAs) for recording employer’s compulsory pension contributions (ECPCs) transferred by employers from their own funds, and targeted savings accounts (TSAs, opened to record and pay out targeted savings to recipients of targeted savings under the National Fund for Children program) exceeded 1.1 million. Receiving statements from IPSA, NPSA, and TSA remains the most popular service. Since the beginning of the year, 21.7 million statements have been issued for all account types, 19.3 million of which were issued electronically and 2.1 million automatically. UAPF reminds that receiving account information through your personal account is the most convenient, reliable, and efficient way to monitor your pension savings. The service operates online 24/7, allowing you to receive up-to-date information at any time and from anywhere. Account information is available not only through the ENPF mobile app and your personal account on the UAPF website, but also through the egov.kz portal or the e-government mobile app. This provides additional convenience for users who prefer to interact with government services through a unified platform. UAPF notes that, starting in 2025, the annual automatic mailing of statements will no longer be provided. However, it is still possible to receive information about the status of pension savings by mail by submitting a corresponding request to the UAPF address. In addition to receiving statements in their personal account on the website and in the mobile app, contributors (beneficiaries) can use services such as making changes and additions to their details, obtaining a certificate of account availability, submitting an application for pension benefits in connection with the establishment of a disability of groups 1 or 2 indefinitely or in connection with reaching the age of fifty through voluntary pension contributions, tracking the status of a benefit application, transferring a portion of pension savings to an investment portfolio manager (IPM), projecting a future pension using a pension calculator, etc. Over the past period, 74,000 contributor applications for the transfer of a portion of pension savings to IPM trust management were accepted, the majority of which were in electronic format. The UAPF reminds that its unified online information platform for investment management of citizens' pension assets, invest.enpf.kz, brings together all key information about investment portfolio managers (IPMs) in a single digital space and provides a systematic approach to providing data on investment activities. On the invest.enpf.kz portal, users have access in Kazakh and Russian to information about the pension savings system, securities, investment strategies (criteria), basic concepts, and the pension asset allocation structure, as well as the financial performance of each IPM, data on the IPM's compliance with regulatory requirements, and other information allowing contributors to develop a profile of their IPM and its investment activities. During the reporting period, 67,200 applications for changes to account details were received, 63,100 of which were submitted at the Fund's offices. When applying for a service from UAPF specialists, contributors typically receive additional consultations and advice on savings management. As part of its outreach efforts, 34,700 roadside presentations were held, attended by 689,000 people. The number of materials published in the media based on UAPF announcements was 24,100. The number of inquiries received from contributors and beneficiaries through feedback channels (call center, website consultations, instant messaging, social media, and other communication channels) was 255,800. As a reminder, any company can request an on-site presentation and consultation on the funded pension system by simply calling the call center at 1418 or through the Fund's website or mobile app. UAPF consulting services can be obtained through instant messengers (chat bot in WhatsApp and Viber at +7 777 000 14 18), call center at 1418 (free call within Kazakhstan), on the corporate website enpf.kz, as well as on the official UAPF pages on social networks Instagram, Facebook, VKontakte, Telegram, Odnoklassniki. UAPF was founded on August 22, 2013 on the basis of GNPF APF JSC. The founder and shareholder of the UAPF is the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan represented by the State Institution Committee of State Property and Privatization of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Trust management of UAPF pension assets is carried out by the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan. In accordance with the pension legislation, the UAPF attracts compulsory pension contributions, employer’s compulsory pension contributions, compulsory occupational pension contributions, voluntary pension contributions, as well as carries out enrollment and accounting of voluntary pension contributions formed at the expense of the unclaimed amount of guaranteed compensation for the guaranteed deposit, transferred by the organization carrying out mandatory guarantee of deposits, in accordance with the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On mandatory guarantee of deposits placed in second-tier banks of the Republic of Kazakhstan", ensures the implementation of pension benefits.The Fund also carries out accounting of target assets and target requirements, accounting and crediting of target savings (TS) to target savings accounts, payments of TS to their recipients in bank accounts, accounting for returns of TS in the manner determined by the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan within the framework of the National Fund for Children program (More details atwww.enpf.kz)
UAPF reminds about the planned termination of the agreement on trust management of pension assets with Halyk Global Markets JSC
Unified Accumulative Pension Fund JSC (hereinafter referred to as UAPF or the Fund) reminds that it will no longer accept new applications from contributors to transfer pension assets to the investment portfolio manager, Halyk Global Markets JSC (hereinafter referred to as IPM), effective January 1, 2026. This decision was made following the receipt of a notice on December 31, 2025, of the planned termination, effective January 1, 2027, at the initiative of this IPM, of the Pension Asset Trust Management Agreement No. 17/6/18-02-21/P dated February 18, 2021 (hereinafter referred to as the Agreement). At the same time, all pension savings previously transferred to IPM will continue to be managed by Halyk Global Markets JSC under the current terms until they are transferred to the management of the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan. According to the current Rules, the IPM is obligated to fully fulfill its obligations under the Agreement until its termination, including compliance with the approved investment strategy, asset safety requirements, and reporting requirements. After the management period ends, the UAPF returns the pension assets held by the IPM in trust in full, in cash, to the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan (hereinafter, the NBRK). The IPM will fully reimburse any negative balance that may arise. The calculation and timing of the IPM's reimbursement of the negative balance are regulated by Resolution No. 43 of the Board of the Agency of the Republic of Kazakhstan for Regulation and Development of the Financial Market dated June 7, 2023. We remind you that contributors have the right (no earlier than one year from the date of transfer of pension savings to the trust management of the IPM) to transfer pension savings to the trust management of the NBRK or another IPM. According to statistics, since the beginning of 2026, 441 pension savings transfers totaling 765.5 million tenge have been made from Halyk Global Markets JSC to other IPMs. During the same period, 881 transfers totaling 1.3 billion tenge were returned to the NBRK's management. Moreover, each IPM contributor could make more than one transfer of their pension savings to other IPMs or to the NBRK's management. UAPF was founded on August 22, 2013 on the basis of GNPF APF JSC. The founder and shareholder of the UAPF is the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan represented by the State Institution Committee of State Property and Privatization of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Trust management of UAPF pension assets is carried out by the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan. In accordance with the pension legislation, the UAPF attracts compulsory pension contributions, employer’s compulsory pension contributions, compulsory occupational pension contributions, voluntary pension contributions, as well as carries out enrollment and accounting of voluntary pension contributions formed at the expense of the unclaimed amount of guaranteed compensation for the guaranteed deposit, transferred by the organization carrying out mandatory guarantee of deposits, in accordance with the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On mandatory guarantee of deposits placed in second-tier banks of the Republic of Kazakhstan", ensures the implementation of pension benefits. The Fund also carries out accounting of target assets and target requirements, accounting and crediting of target savings (TS) to target savings accounts, payments of TS to their recipients in bank accounts, accounting for returns of TS in the manner determined by the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan within the framework of the National Fund for Children program (More details atwww.enpf.kz)
TRANSFERRING PENSION SAVINGS TO THE IPM
TRENDING QUESTIONS ABOUT THE UAPF Who is eligible to take advantage of the legislative changes regarding the option to transfer up to 100% of pension savings formed through compulsory pension contributions and compulsoryoccupational pension contributions to an investment portfolio manager (IPM)? How does the transfer process work? Currently, depositors can transfer up to 50% of their savings, formed through compulsory pension contributions (CPC) and compulsory occupational pension contributions (COPC), and up to 100% of voluntary pension contributions, to investment portfolio managers (IPMs). Effective September 7, 2026, contributors' ability to transfer mandatory savings to IPMs will be expanded to 100%. For depositors' convenience when choosing an IPM, all necessary information is published monthly on the online pension asset investment management platform, invest.enpf.kz, including financial indicators, pension asset returns, the size of pension assets under trust management, the investment portfolio structure, and its dynamics. To transfer pension savings to an IPM, a contributor must select an IPM from the register of IPMs approved for pension asset management (detailed information is available on the UAPF website in the "Services - Transfer to Trust Management - Register of Investment Portfolio Managers" section), and then submit an application using the appropriate form. This can be done in your personal account on the enpf.kz website using an electronic digital signature, or at any UAPF branch. The status of your submitted application to transfer pension savings to trust management can be tracked in your personal account on the website or in the UAPF mobile app under the "My Applications for Payments/Transfers/VPC Refunds" tab. The process of submitting applications for transfer to IPM, as well as their processing by UAPF, is fully automated. UAPF transfers pension assets to IPM trust management within the timeframes established by regulations. What IPM can offer? Starting July 1, 2023, investors have been able to transfer up to 50% of compulsory pension contributions (CPCs), compulsory occupational pension contributions (COPCs), and up to 100% of voluntary pension contributions (VPCs) to private investment portfolio managers (IPMs), regardless of the minimum sufficiency threshold. They can also transfer the entire amount of savings under CPCs and/or COPCs if they have a pension annuity agreement with an insurance company. Starting September 7, 2026, contributors' ability to transfer mandatory savings to IPMs will be expanded to 100%. Transferring up to 100% of pension savings to IPM management opens up opportunities for contributors to grow their capital long-term, tailored to their own preferences, based on a study of IPM indicators and strategies. Which companies may be permitted to manage pension assets?? Only IPMs listed in the register of pension asset management companies of the Agency of the Republic of Kazakhstan for Regulation and Development of the Financial Market (ARDFM) are permitted to manage pension assets, regardless of strategy. The ARDFM has developed specific requirements for IPMs: they must possess a license to manage an investment portfolio, have successful experience in the market and managing client assets, demonstrate positive financial and economic performance over the past several years, have sufficient equity capital to cover losses associated with investing pension assets, etc. Furthermore, IPMs must enter into a trust agreement with the UAPF for the management of pension assets and have a tripartite custodial agreement with the UAPF and the custodian bank. Currently, six companies are permitted to manage pension assets. These include: Alatau City Invest JSC, BCC Invest JSC, Halyk Global Markets JSC (Halyk Global Markets JSC notified UAPF on December 30, 2025, of its agreement termination effective January 1, 2027, at the initiative of this IPM. Therefore, UAPF will not accept new applications from contributors to transfer pension assets to its management effective January 1, 2026), Halyk Finance JSC, Centras Securities JSC, and Tansar Capital JSC. If a company is removed from the register, contributors' savings will return to the management of the National Bank. How to choose which company to trust to manage your pension savings? Before deciding to transfer your pension savings to a trust, we recommend carefully reviewing the current list of IPMs on the market and examining their investment statements on the UAPF website. It is important to analyze the IPM's financial performance, as well as information on the application of administrative measures, sanctions, and enforcement actions by the regulator (ARDFM) against the IPM (if any). The choice of an IPM is an independent decision for the contributor. On the UAPF portal (https://invest.enpf.kz/), you can compare various critical IPM performance indicators, such as profitability, NU (the specific value of pension assets used to characterize their change as a result of investment, the rate of which depends on the accrued investment income (loss)), portfolio structure, and the IPM's financial performance. The Unified Internet Information Platform for Investment Management is a modern digital resource that provides contributors with the opportunity to analyze pension investments online. In their personal account, contributors can, among other things: check the available amount for transfer/return to/from the IPM/the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan; review the terms and conditions for submitting an application to select (change) an IPM or to return pension savings held in trust by the IPM to the trust management of the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan; submit an application to select (change) an IPM or to return to the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan and track its status; access other available pension services. Thus, the unified online platform invest.enpf.kz is becoming an important element in the development of digital services in the pension system, facilitating more informed participation by contributors in managing their pension capital and shaping their financial future. Up-to-date information on the selected IPM investment portfolio is also available on the Fund's website: https://www.enpf.kz/ru/services/Invest/57501/ Are UAPF databases adapted for transferring large savings amounts and, in the future, managing/tracking multiple portfolios? How is integration with IPM systems implemented? It's worth noting that the Fund already has extensive experience integrating its systems within various government programs. Accordingly, UAPF's information systems allow for the accounting of all data during interactions with the IPM. At the same time, UAPF remains the common accounting and information center for all contributors, operating their individual pension savings accounts regardless of who manages the assets (the NBRK and/or the IPM, at the contributor's discretion).

All up-to-date information on pension asset statistics is available on the enpf.kz website in the "Statistics and Analytics" section. UAPF was founded on August 22, 2013 on the basis of GNPF APF JSC. The founder and shareholder of the UAPF is the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan represented by the State Institution Committee of State Property and Privatization of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan.

Pension assets are working for the future:Investment results as of August 1, 2026
Investment income for contributors is generated through the management of pension assets by the National Bank of Kazakhstan (NBRK) and investment portfolio managers (IPMs). Based on the NBRK's investment activities in managing pension assets formed through compulsory pension contributions (CPCs), compulsory occupational pension contributions (COPCs), and voluntary pension contributions (VPCs), the accrued investment income for the last 12 months from August 2025 to July 2026 amounted to approximately 1.81 trillion tenge, with a return of 7.13% for this period. For pension assets formed through employer’scompulsory pension contributions (ECPCs), accrued investment income as of August 1, 2026, over the last 12 months amounted to 153.93 billion tenge, with a return of 19.12% for this period. It's important to note that the return on pension assets over specific short-term periods is not an indicator of their management effectiveness. An objective analysis of investment income is best performed over a longer period. The accumulated investment return since the inception of the funded pension system in 1998 as of August 1, 2026, was 1,111.11%, with inflation for the entire period at 1,001.29%. As of August 1, 2026, the net investment income earned by the NBRK since April 1, 2014 (following the consolidation of pension assets into the UAPF) exceeded 14.68 trillion tenge. Taking into account benefit payments made, its share of the total pension savings of contributors (beneficiaries) amounts to 41.1%, demonstrating the significant role of investment activity in the structure of citizens' savings. As a reminder, contributors have the right to transfer a portion of their pension assets (currently up to 50% of pension savings from the CPC, COPC, and up to 100% of pension savings from VPC) to a private investment portfolio manager (IPM) that meets the regulator's requirements. Contributors can choose one of three investment portfolios within which the IPM operates: the Ki (12) portfolio is suitable for all investors, regardless of age. The minimum return is calculated over the past 12 months; the Ki (36) portfolio is designed for those with at least three years left until retirement. The minimum return is calculated over a 36-month period; the Ki (60) portfolio is designed for investors with a long-term horizon (more than 13 years until retirement). The minimum return is determined over a 60-month period. The entire investment management and accounting system for pension assets is transparent: each contributor can view their investment income in their personal account on the enpf.kz website or in the mobile app. Information on the investment management of UAPF pension assets, the financial instruments in which UAPF pension assets are invested, and investment results are published on the official UAPF website (www.enpf.kz) in the "Statistics and Analytics/Investment Management of Pension Assets" section, on the invest.enpf.kz portal, and in the Fund's information materials. UAPF was founded on August 22, 2013 on the basis of GNPF APF JSC. The founder and shareholder of the UAPF is the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan represented by the State Institution Committee of State Property and Privatization of the Ministry of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Trust management of UAPF pension assets is carried out by the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan. In accordance with the pension legislation, the UAPF attracts compulsory pension contributions, employer’s compulsory pension contributions, compulsory occupational pension contributions, voluntary pension contributions, as well as carries out enrollment and accounting of voluntary pension contributions formed at the expense of the unclaimed amount of guaranteed compensation for the guaranteed deposit, transferred by the organization carrying out mandatory guarantee of deposits, in accordance with the Law of the Republic of Kazakhstan "On mandatory guarantee of deposits placed in second-tier banks of the Republic of Kazakhstan", ensures the implementation of pension benefits.The Fund also carries out accounting of target assets and target requirements, accounting and crediting of target savings (TS) to target savings accounts, payments of TS to their recipients in bank accounts, accounting for returns of TS in the manner determined by the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan within the framework of the National Fund for Children program (More details atwww.enpf.kz)
