- The Cabinet of Ministers approved a new procedure for placing temporarily free funds from the budgets of the budget system. This decision was formalized by Resolution No. 839 dated December 26, 2025.

This document aims to improve the management of budget resources and enhance the transparency of the relevant procedures. Temporarily free funds will be placed by the authorized state body responsible for budget forecasting and execution, through deposits in commercial banks.

Auction for the placement of funds will be conducted on the platform of the Closed Joint Stock Company "Kyrgyz Stock Exchange." Auction participants, namely banks, will need to submit applications indicating the amount and interest rate; the winner will be determined based on the highest bid.

After placing the funds in the Unified Treasury Account, a balance of at least one month's salary fund from the republican budget must be maintained.

The authorized body is required to inform the National Bank in advance about the upcoming placements, specifying the volumes to account for possible impacts on liquidity and the currency market.

To diversify, a restriction has been established: the volume placed in one commercial bank should not exceed 50% of the total volume of placed funds.

Requirements for Participating Banks

Only commercial banks registered in Kyrgyzstan that meet the minimum requirements are allowed to participate in the auction: possession of a license from the National Bank of Kyrgyzstan (NBKR), profitability over the last two years, a positive auditor's opinion, no overdue obligations to the state budget and the Social Fund, as well as no legal disputes with the NBKR and temporary administration.

Deposit Conditions

Deposit terms range from 1 to 12 months but cannot exceed the end of the budget year. Interest is accrued on a simple interest basis, with payments made monthly (for deposits of up to one month — at the end of the term). There is also a provision for early return of the amount (or part of it) upon written request from the authorized body.

Interest income from placements must be transferred to a special account of the authorized body in the Unified Treasury Account.

With the adoption of this resolution, previous documents regulating the placement of temporarily free funds in commercial banks lose their force, including Resolutions No. 135 dated March 11, 2022, No. 704 dated December 22, 2023, and No. 41 dated January 27, 2025.

The resolution comes into force seven days after its official publication. It was published in the newspaper "Erkin Too" on December 30, 2025, No. 103.
