Yet, FinTech companies in Kazakhstan are facing the same problems as FinTech companies across the world: limited available talent. Currently Kazakhstani FinTech companies are trying to overcome this issue by: (1) collaborating with banking specialists, (2) recruiting young, inexperienced professionals, (3) luring employees from other companies and (4) attracting foreign specialists. These efforts are inadequate as all have severe shortcomings and have failed to address the issue.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is obvious that it is time for Kazakhstani universities to introduce FinTech programs. Their graduates, by definition, would be well-versed in both financial and technical matters as well as all other modern trends within the sector. Successful examples include Skolkovo in Russia and High-Tech Park in Belarus. If Kazakhstan is also able to ensure appropriate resources for FinTech, then the likelihood of it becoming one of the most competitive countries in the digital age will increase significantly.<\/span><\/p>\n<div class=\"rpbt_shortcode\">\n\n<div id='rpbt-related-gallery-1' class='gallery related-gallery related-galleryid-12675 gallery-columns-3 gallery-size-thumbnail'><figure class='gallery-item' role='group' aria-label='State use of biometric data: good or bad?'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/en\/state-use-of-biometric-data-good-or-bad\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/10\/state-use-of-biometric-data-good-or-bad-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"rpbt-related-gallery-1-11159\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='rpbt-related-gallery-1-11159'>\n\t\t\t\tState use of biometric data: good or bad?\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item' role='group' aria-label='BFC FinTech Monitor 28th September \u2013 5th October'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/en\/bfc-fintech-monitor-28th-september-5th-october\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/10\/mRwaRc1-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"rpbt-related-gallery-1-15384\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='rpbt-related-gallery-1-15384'>\n\t\t\t\tBFC FinTech Monitor 28th September \u2013 5th October\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item' role='group' aria-label='Kyrgyz universities to offer programs on blockchain and cryptocurrencies'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon landscape'>\n\t\t\t\t<a href='https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/en\/kyrgyz-universities-to-offer-programs-on-blockchain-and-cryptocurrencies\/'><img width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/bulletins.bfconsulting.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/03\/kyrgyz-universities-to-offer-programs-on-blockchain-and-cryptocurrencies-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"rpbt-related-gallery-1-12459\" loading=\"lazy\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<figcaption class='wp-caption-text gallery-caption' id='rpbt-related-gallery-1-12459'>\n\t\t\t\tKyrgyz universities to offer programs on blockchain and cryptocurrencies\n\t\t\t\t<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>FinTech companies in Kazakhstan have helped thousands of people gain access to fast and convenient financial resources.
