According to Finance Minister Timur Ishmetov, all changes in tax administration, if necessary, will be postponed for several months or next year. Together with the Tax Committee, a questionnaire is being developed to identify the problems of entrepreneurs and find out what assistance the Ministry of Finance and the Tax Committee can provide.

According to specialists from the Ministry of Finance and the State Tax Committee, business development depends not only on the personal abilities of entrepreneurs, but also on other factors. And the role of the state is to eradicate negative factors hindering the development of business.

The decision of the Central Bank to raise the main rate by the authorities is seen as a temporary tool that had to be used under the influence of external factors.

It was noted that interest rates on mortgage and educational loans financed from budgetary funds will not increase, the Minister of Finance stressed.
