ATF Bank acted as the financial channel as Akhmetzhan Yessimov, along with Galimzhan Yessenov, diverted public funds from Samruk-Kazyna
The current embezzlement at the National Welfare Fund "Samruk-Kazyna" is taking a different approach. The new management has been instructed to move away from the methods of the recently ousted Akhmetzhan Yessimov and develop their own strategies.
The crazy fluctuations in the reporting of individual enterprises within "Samruk-Kazyna" cannot be explained by anything else. Hysterical statements that "Samruk-Kazyna," after the wise leadership by Nazarbayev’s nephew Akhmetzhan Yessimov, might reduce procurement volumes by twenty-two times suggest that there’s a mess in the fund’s reports.
There’s no logic in this. The main shareholder of Samruk-Kazyna, a national fund, is the government. Yet the supposedly government-appointed director of the NWF... does everything to harm the interests of the state that appointed him.
Akhmetzhan Yessimov deceived the country, the people, and the government
Under Akhmetzhan Yessimov, who built wonderful houses in France for himself, his daughter, and son-in-law Galimzhan Yessenov, the embezzlement of money from the NWF went in many directions. Galimzhan Yessenov’s function was the formal duty of maintaining ATFBank, and through ATFBank, in turn, Samruk-Kazyna kept the people’s money, with an average balance of a hundred billion tenge, by personal order of A. Yessimov. Although by law, the NWF had no right to hold even a tenge there.
For obvious reasons, the condition for Akhmetzhan Yessimov’s dismissal from Samruk-Kazyna was the destruction of evidence, namely the ATFBank along with all records. It was ’sold’ to the Elbasy fund in a rushed and secret manner. Galimzhan Yessenov and Akhmetzhan Yessimov, the actual and true owner of the bank, didn’t stop there and during the transition period, the bank ’forgave’ three hundred billion in loans, which were issued to effectively non-residents, offshore companies opened by the bank itself. Clearly, in response to Tokayev’s demand (if this moan can be called a demand) to pay Samruk-Kazyna’s profits to the budget, Yessimov simply brushed it aside. The money was already gone: it had been largely invested ’in himself.’
The continuity of this line of creating a parallel state, personally controlled by Nursultan Nazarbayev through loyal people, was shown by the former president when he took charge at Samruk-Kazyna. Contrary to some comments, it was not a solace show for the old boss: it was a clearly expressed program for further plundering of the country.
