President of the Kazakhstan Chamber of Mines Joins the National Multi-Stakeholder Group of the EITI

Ruslan Baimishev, President of the Kazakhstan Chamber of Mines, has joined the National Multi-Stakeholder Group (MSG) of the Extractive Industries Transparency Initiative (EITI) in the Republic of Kazakhstan, representing extractive companies.

The MSG brings together representatives of the government, extractive companies, and civil society and serves as a key platform for multi-stakeholder dialogue on transparency and responsible management of Kazakhstan’s natural resources.

Amid global uncertainty, transparency, predictability of business conditions, and adherence to high international standards are becoming particularly important. These principles help strengthen trust between the government, investors, and society, reduce investment risks, and enhance Kazakhstan’s attractiveness for long-term investment.

The Kazakhstan Chamber of Mines consistently advocates for the adoption and promotion of international standards of transparency and responsible business conduct. The Chamber President’s participation in the MSG will strengthen the representation of mining companies’ interests in multi-stakeholder dialogue and contribute to the practical implementation of EITI principles in Kazakhstan.

For the Chamber, participation in the EITI is an important part of its efforts to improve the investment climate, strengthen international cooperation, and integrate Kazakhstan’s mining industry into global initiatives promoting responsible mineral resource development.
