In August 2024 we (“Kaspi.kz”) submitted a non-binding letter of interest to Uzbekistan’s State Assets Management Agency (“SAMA”), indicating our interest in participating in the privatisation of the National Interbank Processing Center (“Humo”). At this time, we are not proceeding further in the process.

Uzbekistan’s economy is growing fast and its government is pursuing an attractive reform agenda. Kaspi.kz’s innovative digital products improve the everyday lives of consumers and merchants and we will continue to look for opportunities to play a part in Uzbekistan’s exciting digital transformation.

About Kaspi.kz

Kaspi.kz’s mission is to improve people’s lives by developing innovative mobile products and services. To deliver upon this we operate a unique two-sided Super App model – Kaspi.kz Super App for consumers and Kaspi Pay Super App for merchants.

Through these Super Apps consumers and merchants can access our leading Payments, Marketplace, and Fintech Platforms. All our services are designed to be highly relevant to users’ everyday needs and enable consumers and merchants to connect and transact, using our proprietary payments network.

The combination of a large, highly engaged consumer and merchant base, best-in-class, highly relevant digital products and a capex lite approach, results in strong top-line growth, a profitable business model and enables us to continue innovating, delighting our users and fulfilling our mission.

Harvard Business School has written two case studies on Kaspi.kz which it continues to teach to its MBA students.

Kaspi.kz has been listed on Nasdaq since January 2024.
