Особое значение в этом процессе имеет эффективное и безопасное инвестирование активов Единого накопительного пенсионного фонда, поскольку от него зависят устойчивость экономики и сохранность будущих выплат. Однако в данной сфере сохраняются проблемы, связанные с недостаточной зрелостью правового регулирования, низкой прозрачностью и эффективностью управления. Цель исследования – выявить правовые проблемы и противоречия в регулировании инвестирования пенсионных активов, а также предложить эффективные механизмы на основе международного опыта. В рамках работы проанализированы нормативно-правовая база, механизмы государственного контроля, принципы инвестиционной политики, а также рекомендации международных организаций и опыт стран с развитыми пенсионными системами. Исследование проводилось по трем направлениям: анализ правовых основ инвестирования, сравнительное изучение международного опыта и правовая оценка прозрачности, подотчетности и управления рисками. Применялись сравнительно-правовой, системно-структурный и эмпирический методы. Результаты показали наличие непоследовательности законодательства, слабого независимого контроля и ограниченной отчетности. Преобладание инвестиций в государственные ценные бумаги снижает диверсификацию и доходность активов. Рекомендации исследования направлены на совершенствование правового регулирования, повышение прозрачности и эффективности управления пенсионными активами, что способствует укреплению доверия граждан и устойчивости пенсионной системы Казахстана.</p></abstract><trans-abstract xml:lang="en"><p>Improving Kazakhstan’s pension system is a strategic task that ensures financial stability and social protection for citizens. Effective and secure investment of the assets of the Unified Accumulative Pension Fund is of particular importance in this process, as the stability of the economy and the security of future payments depend on it. However, problems remain in this area due to insufficient maturity of legal regulation, low transparency and management efficiency.The aim of the study is to identify legal problems and contradictions in the regulation of pension asset investment, as well as to propose effective mechanisms based on international experience. The study analyses the regulatory framework, state control mechanisms, investment policy principles, as well as recommendations from international organisations and the experience of countries with developed pension systems. The study was conducted in three areas: analysis of the legal basis for investment, comparative study of international experience, and legal assessment of transparency, accountability, and risk management. Comparative legal, systemic-structural, and empirical methods were used. The results showed inconsistencies in legislation, weak independent oversight and limited accountability. The predominance of investments in government securities reduces diversification and asset returns. The recommendations of the study are aimed at improving legal regulation, increasing transparency and efficiency in the management of pension assets, which contributes to strengthening public confidence and the sustainability of Kazakhstan’s pension system.</p></trans-abstract><kwd-group xml:lang="ru"><kwd>Единый накопительный пенсионный фонд</kwd><kwd>пенсионные активы</kwd><kwd>правовое регулирование</kwd><kwd>международный опыт</kwd><kwd>инвестиционная политика</kwd></kwd-group><kwd-group xml:lang="en"><kwd>Unified Accumulative Pension Fund</kwd><kwd>pension assets</kwd><kwd>legal regulation</kwd><kwd>international experience</kwd><kwd>investment policy</kwd></kwd-group></article-meta></front><back><ref-list><title>References</title><ref id="cit1"><label>1</label><citation-alternatives><mixed-citation xml:lang="ru">Абдрахманов К.Ш.
