Situated at the crossroads of Asia and Europe, Central Asia is of growing strategic importance. Rich in minerals and hydrocarbons, it serves as a major transit zone, supplying the global economy with vital raw materials: oil, gas, coal, metals and agricultural products. Hydrocarbons and metals account for as much as 30% of Kazakhstan’s GDP, 70% of its exports and up to half of government revenue (OECD, 2018a).
