04/02/2026, 12:13The shareholders of Optima Bank decided to allocate profits toward strengthening the bank’s stability, foregoing the payment of dividends.
Following the annual general meeting held on March 31, it was approved that the net profit for 2025, amounting to 2.56 billion KGS, would not be distributed.
The bank explicitly explained the decision as necessary to comply with regulatory requirements, preserve the business, and enhance resilience to increased risks while maintaining financial stability.
The decision reflects the current logic of the banking sector. Against the backdrop of rising risks and regulatory requirements, capital accumulation has become a priority over the distribution of income among shareholders.
In addition, shareholders approved the financial results for 2025 and the budget for 2026, and elected a new independent member of the board of directors, Nurlan Tokobaev. He was elected for a four-year term.
