NUR-SULTAN, June 15 (Reuters) - Kazakhstan plans to reduce the transfer from its rainy-day National Fund to the state budget to 2.4 trillion tenge ($5.62 billion) in 2022 from this year’s 2.7 trillion tenge, Finance Minister Yerulan Zhamaubayev said on Tuesday. The oil-exporting Central Asian nation regularly taps the fund to support its budget, but aims to reduce its reliance on such transfers.
