Currently, the share of the iron and steel industry in national GDP has reached 8.5%. In 2022, the sector launched 19 new investment projects worth over $502 million, creating 3.5 thousand permanent jobs.
Especially in the coming years, the Kazakh government will take measures to expand the country's mineral and raw material base and increase processing capacity, as well as a single online platform for mineral mining companies.
Alikhan Smailov also noted that in order to increase the investment attractiveness of the iron and steel complex, the government decided to exempt projects that will start industrial production after December 31, 2022, from mining tax for up to five years.
The Prime Minister of Kazakhstan announced that the authorities will continue to cooperate with the business community to support and develop industry and other sectors of the economy.
