Timur Turlov is quite a popular person. He is an example of a self-made man. We can talk about his perseverance, hard work and thirst for knowledge for quite a long time, but it is not worth it, let’s consider his brainchild – Freedom Holding Corp., opened back in 2008.
He opened it in Kazakhstan, because he liked this country, he chose it as a place to live for his family. Initially, the headquarters were planned there, but things went further.
Despite his youth, T. Turlov’s views on investment activities were distinguished by their breadth and progressiveness, which helped him successfully develop this difficult business, accessible not to every mature man.
The main areas of the company’s activities are brokerage and banking services. One of the largest banks in Kazakhstan, Freedom Bank Kazakhstan, is involved in financial activities.
According to Mr. Turlov, Freedom Holding has formed an entire ecosystem, including:
- ticket sales services;
- online grocery store;
- ReKassa service.
The year 2023 was marked for the company by the creation of the Freedom Media media platform, designed for unhindered entry into the mobile operator market in Kazakhstan.
