Revise the amount of "cash" for individual entrepreneurs and legal entities
Mazhilis deputy Amanzhan Zhamalov proposed to change the rules of cash turnover for entrepreneurs
To restrict the issue of cash for individual entrepreneurs, legal entities in STB up to 10 million tenge per month, or the equivalent in foreign currency. To empower the National Bank with the right to establish an administrative penalty on second-tier banks in the form of fines for failure to comply with this restriction. Such a proposal was made by Mazhilisman Amanzhan Zhamalov at a joint session of Chambers of Kazakhstani Parliament.
The MP also considers it possible to provide the State Revenue Committee with the right "to compile of a list of companies with the risk of pseudo-entrepreneurship activities".
"To introduce monitoring of special bank accounts during public procurement and procurements of goods and services by the quasi-public sector worth more than 1 billion tenge”, - said Zhamalov.
The MP cited statistics of the SRC of the Ministry of Finance on the intiated criminal cases on the facts of pseudo-entrepreneurship in 2015, according to which "about 300 billion tenge were cashed, and from 2011 to July 2014 - more than 1 trillion 270 billion tenge".
"I would like to draw your attention to an amazing coincidence, it is about 100% of the total amount of cash in circulation, that is the conclusion that the money - almost the only source of cash flow in the country", - said Zhamalov.
"In fairness, I would like to note that the State Revenue Committee submitted dozens of proposals to the National Bank on amendments and additions to the existing legislation", - the Mazhilis deputy made a remark. For example, a proposed mechanism for cash withdrawal from bank accounts of legal entities and individual entrepreneurs in the amount, exceeding 7 million tenge.
Amanzhan Zhamalov believes that "the amendments made in 2012 to the Law "On payments and money transfers" in terms of reduction of the payment size for bank transfers from 4000 MCI to 1000 MCI, did not give the desired effect". The Mazhilis deputy made conclusions, citing statistics, according to which 187 total orders and notices in the amount of 398 million tenge were issued in 2015 for the violation of this provision.
"The number of counterparties due pseudo-enterprises grows every year, and in 2015 the number was 2951 with a turnover of settlements in the amount of 105.3 billion tenge. Write-off of these balances by the Tax Committee from the accounts of contractors of pseudo-entrepreneurs is not legitimate, and today serves as a significant obstacle to business development", - stated Zhamalov.
In this regard, the deputy initiates a transition to the information interaction of SRC and second-tier banks at the legislative level. "Most of the crimes of pseudo-entrepreneurship is detected after the fact, when the considerable damage has already been caused to the state, as the Financial Monitoring Committee makes the suspicion assessment, which, unfortunately, does not have sufficient resources", - concluded the deputy of the Mazhilis.
