Weekly Market Review on Kazakhstan

"ABN AMRO wins the best debt house in central Asia, in part thanks to its excellent oil and gas team, which has done large financings for some of the biggest oil fields in the region, including TengizChevroil's USD 1.1 billion bond issue for the onshore Tengiz field in Kazakhstan. The bank has also done deals for financials, such as Bank TuranAlem, and for telecoms, such as Kazaktelekom."
