The news and publications section of the National Bank of the Republic of Kazakhstan (NBK) is the official feed where the regulator posts fresh announcements, press releases, and materials on monetary and currency policy. Among the latest publications are materials dated September 16, 2026, and August 26, 2026. For accountants, financiers, and users of 1C, such a feed with dates is a convenient point for tracking the official position on the base rate and exchange rates.
What the section represents
The NBK news page collects official statements and publications from the regulator in chronological order. The dates next to each material allow for a quick understanding of how fresh the information is and to avoid confusing current decisions with earlier ones. It is the primary source, not media summaries, that should be considered the basis for decision-making: the regulator's formulations are precise and not distorted in transmission.
The feed reflects, in particular, messages related to monetary policy and the currency sphere. Monitoring these publications helps to timely see official statements on the base rate and approaches to exchange rate policy.
Who it concerns
The section is useful for a wide range of specialists:
- Accountants and chief accountants — exchange rates and regulator decisions directly affect the revaluation of foreign currency assets and liabilities, settlements for foreign economic operations, and tax consequences.
- Financial directors and treasurers — the level of the base rate is a benchmark for the cost of borrowed funds and cash flow planning.
- Users and implementers of 1C — official exchange rates and changes in the regulator's policy affect the configuration settings, loading of exchange rates, and accuracy of automatic calculations.
- Entrepreneurs and lawyers engaged in foreign economic activity — the conditions for settlements with foreign counterparties depend on currency policy.
What to do in practice
To work with official information effectively and without errors, adhere to several rules:
1. Rely on the primary source. Check the formulations and dates in the NBK news section itself, not in summaries.
2. Record the publication date. The date of the material helps to separate the current decision from the outdated one and correctly justify the applied rate or price in accounting.
3. Verify rates in 1C. Ensure that the mechanism for loading exchange rates is set up and that data is pulled from the official source; when entering manually, double-check the values against the primary source.
4. Maintain internal regulations. Appoint someone responsible for monitoring the regulator's publications and the process of communicating changes to the accounting and finance departments.
5. Keep confirmations. For significant operations, take a snapshot or export the official publication with the date — this will be useful for justifications and audits.
Timelines and frequency
Publications in the section appear as decisions are made and materials are prepared by the regulator, so there is no single fixed frequency for the feed — it should be checked regularly, and especially before key accounting operations (closing periods, revaluation, large currency settlements) — it is essential. Specific publication dates for individual materials can be seen directly next to the publication: for example, the feed includes messages from September 16, 2026, and August 26, 2026. Take exact exchange rates, the size of the base rate, and calendar deadlines only from the regulator's publications themselves.
