  • eurobonds of Kazakhstan sovereign debt (USD) - 0.51% (0.52%; 0.54%);
  • short-term domestic GS of the Ministry of Finance and the National Bank (KZT) - 33.02% (38.36%; 35.01%);
  • bonds of local municipal authorities of Kazakhstan (USD) - 0.03% (0.03%; 0.03%);
  • shares of foreign issuers (foreign currencies) - 1.42% (1.51%; 1.51%);
  • corporate bonds of foreign issuers (foreign currencies) - 0.36% (0.27%; 0.28%);

  • refined gold - 0.00% (0.00%; 0.00%);
  • stakes of Kazakhstan unit funds - 0.00% (0.00%; 0.00%);
  • stakes of foreign unit funds - 0.02% (0.02%; 0.00%).

According to FSA data, as of February 1 of 2005, funds on investment accounts and other assets totaled 1.01% (0.72%; 1.02%) of total pension assets.

There were not many new tendencies in January and they were easily forecasted. Floatation of MEUJKAM-120 resulted in the considerable growth of the stake of PA investing into mid- and long-term domestic GS of the Ministry of finance. This a little bit reduced proportion of pension money invested into small-profit short-term GS. Growth of the stake of investments into Kazakhstan companies' bonds, primary floatations of which were actively held in December and in January, also attract attention.

In the opinion of analysts of IRBIS, in February it's possible to forecast more considerable changes in the structure of PA investing because the market will feel consequences of change of PA investing limits set by Kazakhstan Agency for financial market and financial organizations regulation and supervision. Updated limits are in effect since February 12 of 2005.
