International cooperation in insurance: experience and prospects for Kazakhstan

This article analyzes the impact of international cooperation in the insurance field on the economy of Kazakhstan, especially in the context of its participation in the World Trade Organization (WTO) and the Eurasian Economic Union (EAEU). Based on a systematic review of literature and data, including official documents and statistical reports, these agreements' effects on Kazakhstan's insurance market are analyzed. Particular attention is paid to the impact on the competitiveness of domestic insurers and expanding access to new markets and technologies. The article also presents both quantitative and qualitative data reflecting the impact of international experience and cooperation on the efficiency of the domestic insurance market. Quantitative indicators cover insurance companies' financial stability, including the volume of net profit, assets, equity capital, the dynamics of concluded insurance contracts, and the growth of insurance premiums and payments. Qualitative data includes analysis of technology transfer mechanisms, innovation and risk management based on international experience and best practices. Additionally, the article discusses the research results on implementing international standards, their impact on service delivery standards, and business process management in the insurance sector. Based on an analysis of successful international practices and cooperation with leading global insurance companies such as Swiss Re, Munich Re, and Allianz, the importance of exchanging experiences and best practices to stimulate innovation and improve the quality of services within the country is highlighted. Analytical conclusions about the current state and prospects for developing Kazakhstan's insurance market in the context of world trends and standards complement this data
