This has been written by S. Abdrashitova in the article titled "Good buried contribution" in "Express-K» newspaper, № 62 (17662) as of April 10, 2013.

The main banker of the country has focused on the main intrigue of the previous financial weeks.

"Not a single individual contribution of Kazakhstan was made in the last five years in Cyprus," he said. "An individual who opens an account abroad, should notify the relevant authorities. But if a person legally transfers money from Kazakhstan to a foreign bank, the banks indicate that in the summary. "

However, Marchenko does not exclude that remittances have nevertheless taken place .

"And you may even know those people, and the London court knows them well," he openly hinted. - Because they did not notify their Kazakh banks and, of course, did not notify the National Bank, as a body of currency regulation, and we do not have such information. "

The epilogue had a new twist plot. According to the calculations of the National Bank, at the end of the previous year from Kazakhstan to Cyprus $ 1.1 billion had gone in the form of investment. Of these, direct ones are 513 million, portfolio - 22 million and others are 627 million. By the amazing coincidence, Cyprus has invested $ 1.2 billion into our economy .

According to Grigory Marchenko, a significant share of investments from the island are the funds that have been returned to our country, but only via the companies registered in Nicosia.
