ASTANA. KAZINFORM - At least USD 3.7 bln will be attracted to the processing industry of Kazakhstan annually, Deputy Minister of Investment and Development of Kazakhstan Erlan Sagadiyev informed at the CCS media briefing.
"It is a lot more difficult to attract investments to the processing industry than to the primary sector. In 2014, we attracted 3.7 billion US dollars to the processing industry. This is going to be the key figure for us. From now on, we have to attract at least this much to the processing industry," he told.
In turn, Chairman of the Board of the National Agency for Export and Investment "KAZNEX INVEST" Borisby Zhangurazov told that 17 billion US dollars had been attracted into the projects of the processing industry over the first five-year phase of the industrialization program.
