The National Bank of the Kyrgyz Republic has opened a public consultation on a draft Board resolution that would amend several of its regulatory legal acts to refine the framework for Kyrgyz commercial banks conducting business through branches located outside the Kyrgyz Republic. The draft is intended to both enhance regulation and create conditions for overseas branch activity while maintaining banks’ financial stability and an appropriate level of banking supervision. It has been published on the National Bank’s website under the section for draft regulatory acts and on the unified public consultation portal koomtalkuu.gov.kg. Comments and proposals are due by 15 May 2026 and are to be submitted electronically in Word format.
