Kaspi.KZ (KSPI) is one of the most engaging and underrated fintech stories in today’s global market, offering a compelling case as the dominant super app in Kazakhstan. The ecosystem (within all mobile apps) including market commerce, digital payments, lending, deposits, travel bookings, postal delivery and even access to government services is embedded deeply into the daily lives of users. By avoiding desktop development, a mobile-first strategy, you can stay agile, deploy updates quickly, leveraging end-to-end automation and sophisticated testing infrastructure. This focused mobile experience is at the heart of sticky user engagement, with continued opportunities for upselling, similar to how Apple maintains its customers through ecosystem lock-in. The app serves both consumers and merchants through differentiated products and captures a vast amount of user data that powers AI-driven personalization.
Kaspi’s payments and market segments generate the highest profit margins, while the ebook segment is a lower margin initiative, but it has strategic value in ecosystem expansion. Investing in free delivery through Postmet’s national network has significantly improved app usage and customer satisfaction, demonstrating the company’s strategic foresight. Financially, Caspian is extremely sound, with a sound balance sheet, careful debt management and strong profitability metrics. Its gross, sales and profit margins are envious and consistently improved, showing operational excellence and scalability. Compared to its regional and global peers, Kaspi stands out for its excellent efficiency metrics, which investors should not overlook.
The company’s dominant position in Kazakhstan gives it an exclusive market power, particularly in the fintech and e-commerce industry. With high monthly active users and virtually unparalleled customer loyalty, it is difficult for newcomers (even global players like Amazon) to make important intrusions without a disruptive strategy. Even if Kaspi loses market share in one vertical, its multifaceted platform guarantees resilience through diversification, giving it a clear structural advantage in a relatively insulated market. That said, investors must consider the inherent risks of investing in emerging markets. Kaspi’s submission explicitly refers to geopolitical risks, terrorism, natural disasters, and other regional instability as material risks to operations. Kazakhstan’s proximity to Russia and lack of NATO protection could present the geopolitical risks of the black swan, although no one is imminent today.
