According to the new provision, the National Bank will transfer 100% of its profit to the republican budget after its financial statements have been audited by an independent external auditor.
During the discussion of the bill, the participants noted that the expected volumes of transfers could reach approximately 50 billion soms. The Ministry of Finance plans to use these funds to finance the most significant social expenditures.
For comparison:
- In 2024, the National Bank has already transferred 45.7 billion soms to the budget,
- In 2023, this figure was 12.6 billion soms.
It is worth noting that last year all the profits of the National Bank were directed towards the construction of state mortgage housing.
According to the data presented at the meeting, 20-25% of the bank's income comes from gold operations, while the remaining part comes from managing international reserves, securities operations, and other financial instruments.
The final results will be known upon completion of the external audit.
At the conclusion of the discussion, the bill was approved in three readings at once.
