Governing Board

The Board of Directors serves as the primary governing body of Maqsut Narikbayev University. It is responsible for setting the strategic goals, identifying priority areas for development, and establishing the overall direction for the University's long-term activities. The Board also oversees the operations of both the University and the Management Board to ensure alignment with these objectives. To support the effective execution of its duties, the Board has established several specialized committees, including the Audit Committee, Personnel and Remuneration Committee, and Strategic Planning Committee. Additional committees may be created at the Board's discretion or in response to legal requirements under the current legislation of the Republic of Kazakhstan. The Board of Directors performs its duties in compliance with applicable laws, the University’s Charter, the Corporate Governance Code, the Board’s Regulations, and other relevant internal documents of the University.

To ensure the effective operation of the Board of Directors and facilitate the interaction between the Management Board and Shareholders, the Board of Directors appoints a Corporate Secretary. The Corporate Secretary reports directly to the Board of Directors and operates independently of the Management Board. The role of the Corporate Secretary is carried out in compliance with applicable legislation, the Company’s Charter, the Corporate Governance Code, the Regulations on the Corporate Secretary, and other internal company policies.
