How are our closest neighbors and EAEC partners doing today? We are opening a new series of publications dedicated to the situation in FSU countries with an overview of the non-cash payments market in Kazakhstan prepared by Galimzhan Pirmatov, Deputy Cairman of the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan, for The PLUS Journal readers.
