Kazakhstan's construction industry will experience solid growth over our forecast period on the back of continued investment into the hydrocarbons sector, transport links and industrial projects. However, following a major devaluation in the tenge, we have downgraded our forecasts for the sector, as the nascent development of the residential and non-residential sectors will be negatively impacted. We estimate that 5.7% growth was posted in 2013 and as progress is made on a number of largescale projects, a revised down forecast of 7.3% is expected in 2014. Long-term political stability remains the major risk to confidence, although there are signs that a presidential successor is being lined up, which will lower the risk outlook. The construction sector will remain exposed to global oil and commodity price fluctuations.
