In 2025, the Government of the Republic of Kazakhstan ensured the fulfillment of all social obligations of the state. 9.3 trillion tenge was allocated for the development of the social sphere, 7.7 trillion tenge to support the regions. Budget funds were used to build education and health facilities, develop housing and engineering infrastructure, and increase transport accessibility in the country's regions.

Speaking at the plenary session of the Mazhilis of the Parliament of the Republic of Kazakhstan, Minister of Finance of the Republic of Kazakhstan Madi Takiyev presented the main results of the country's socio-economic development and the execution of the republican budget for 2025.

At the end of the year, the economy of Kazakhstan grew by 6.5%. The average monthly salary amounted to 442 thousand tenge, the unemployment rate remained at 4.6%, and the assets of the National Fund reached 73.8 billion US dollars.

Own revenues of the republican budget amounted to 15.3 trillion tenge, an increase of 17.5% compared to the previous year. The growth was due to the expansion of economic activity, an increase in corporate income tax and value added tax revenues, as well as improved tax administration.

In the reporting year, special attention was paid to the fulfillment of social obligations of the state. As part of national projects, the construction of 198 schools and 655 health facilities has been completed. For students, 30 hostels for more than 10 thousand places have been introduced.

The implementation of measures to provide citizens with housing continued. At the end of the year, 20.1 million square meters of housing were commissioned in the country, and 5,141 dwellings were purchased for socially vulnerable categories of the population.

Significant funds were allocated to the development of engineering and communal infrastructure. 6.3 thousand kilometers of water supply and sewerage networks were built and repaired, 980 kilometers of engineering and communication infrastructure were laid.

In order to increase transport accessibility, all types of road works cover about 13 thousand kilometers of roads. State support for socially significant routes continued: 62 railway and 26 air routes were subsidized.

As noted during the report, the key approach in the work of the Government is the assessment of budgetary policy not only by the level of disbursement of funds, but also by specific results for citizens. The main emphasis is on improving the quality of life of the population, developing infrastructure and ensuring sustainable socio-economic growth of the country.
