Kazakhstan’s
sovereign wealth fund Samruk-Kazyna is considering a possible entry
into China’s bond market as part of efforts to broaden its funding
base and deepen financial cooperation with Beijing, official news
agency Kazinform reported on January 27, citing
Samruk-Kazyna’s press service.
During a
working visit to China, the fund’s chair, Nurlan Zhakupov, held
talks with Wang Shuguang, deputy chair of the board and president
of China International Capital Corporation (CICC), the media outlet
reported. Discussions focused on building a long-term partnership
and assessing opportunities for issuing debt in China, alongside
the potential expansion of financing in renminbi.
CICC,
established in 1995, is one of China’s leading investment banks,
offering services across investment banking, brokerage, asset
management and financial advisory. The group is headquartered in
Beijing and operates an extensive network of offices across China,
as well as representative presences in major international
financial centres.
Reports last September indicated that the Kazakh government was
preparing for its first ever yuan-bond issuance.
