A speed of devaluation of tenge during analyzed period is estimated at weighted average rate of the main session of KASE at 12.61% APR. The yields, shown here, do not incorporate overhead expenses that are inevitable when conducting operations and fixing profits. Securities marked by an asterisk are the instruments with less than a year circulation term. Weighted average effective yields are given for them. Very high rates on GS repo in KZT was conditioned by repo opening on bonds of SHAKHARMUNAIGAS OJSC, at which closing deal will be made after coupon payment (trader's mistake in closing price determination is not excluded).
