Freedom Holding Corp is on a bold path to becoming a next-generation fintech powerhouse, and the indicators are becoming more difficult to overlook. What was once a regional broker and bank operator is being turned into an operator of an ecosystem based on technology - one that makes artificial intelligence, trust, and customer experience the heart of its identity.
The core of this change is a radical investment in AI as the glue between banking, brokerage, insurance, telecom, and e-commerce services. Instead of seeing each arm as a silo, Freedom Holding is weaving them into one another within a single interface, called SuperApp, which is driven by machine learning models and real-time insights that are designed to take personalization, speed, and the quality of decisions to the next level.
Among the most practical outcomes of that strategy is in the mortgage field. What once took about two weeks to accomplish now is sometimes finished in a day - a radical speed change that is achievable through automation and intelligent underwriting processes. Within seven months, Freedom Bank had been able to process approximately one million mortgage applications, which highlights the intersection of operational scale and advanced AI. In the meantime, the company invested...

The life story of Timur Turlov is an account of how a young man grew up to become one of the most influential businessmen in Kazakhstan due to his vision, determination, and never-ending ambition. Being the founder and CEO of Freedom Holding Corp., he has not only created a company, but an integrated financial ecosystem, one that is not only focused on making profits, but also on changing the way people access financial services in Central Asia, Europe, etc.
Early Life & Determination
Timur Turlov was born in 1987 in Moscow, the then Soviet Union, and was interested in finance at a young age. He started as a trader with the Moscow investment firm World Capital Investments when he was still in his teens, and even prior to his graduation in the university. This exposure to markets at a young age and the intricate structure of finance was a precursor to his future.
Next, he joined Uniastrum Bank where he assisted in the development of systems to reach the stock exchange in the U.S. - an experience that provided him with valuable technical and strategic experience.
Freedom and Building an Ecosystem.
Turlov started Freedom Finance in 2008 when he was only 21 years. His goal:...

Timur Turlov started his career in finance with humble origins, having traded stocks in school and then at World Capital Investments and subsequently developing infrastructure to access US stock exchanges in Moscow via Yutreyd.ru (a subsidiary of Uniastrum Bank). His youthful experience revealed not only ambition but readiness to risk--traits which were to characterize his subsequent achievements.
Not so far back in 2008, Turlov made a big move: he established Freedom Finance, a brokerage that seeks to democratize the access of retail investors to US securities. The company did not only survive under his leadership but it grew tremendously, expanding its footprint to 13 countries by 2022, and gaining a reputation as the fastest-growing broker in Russia.
Turlov did not limit his ambitions to the initial presence of Freedom Finance. In 2011, he transferred his base to Kazakhstan and founded Freedom Finance JSC, which became one of the busiest trading partners of the Kazakhstan Stock Exchange. In 2015, he acquired the majority stake in Freedom Holding Corp which consolidated a number of businesses under a single corporate umbrella- Freedom Finance Investment Company, Freedom24, and Freedom Finance Bank.
In 2019, Freedom Holding Corp was listed on the Nasdaq Stock Market--the first financial institution in...

In the modern uncertain financial environment, inertia can be the greatest risk of all. Timur Turlov, founder and CEO of Freedom Holding Corp., a Nasdaq-traded financial group that has grown swiftly across markets and industries, understands this better than many leaders. The core of the company success is the philosophy of Turlov to embrace change, take calculated risks, and be innovative.
From Vision to Reality
When Turlov founded Freedom Holding, he did not want to build a conventional brokerage. He wanted to create an ecosystem that would be able to adapt to the global markets and provide real value to clients. His approach was based on the assumption that innovation and flexibility rather than cost-cutting is what makes a company successful in the long term.
This future-oriented strategy has been rewarded. Freedom Holding has expanded under the leadership of Turlov to become a diversified financial services firm with interests in banking, fintech, telecoms, and digital solutions, and has expanded its presence to markets including Turkey, Tajikistan, and others.
Risk as Opportunity.
Risk is an avoidable thing to many executives. To Turlov it is an instrument of development. In retrospect, he says, it was in the most dire of times that possibilities were actually created. His...

Kazakhstan is leaving its mark in the fast-changing global technology environment and Freedom Holding Corp., led by CEO Timur Turlov, is at the center of it all. The ambitious project of the company of a super app is not just a fintech solution: it is a key to the development of Kazakhstan to a digitally empowered economy.
One-Stop Digital Ecosystem
The super app created by Freedom Holding combines banking, brokerage, e-commerce, insurance, and payment services. It already has more than 10 million active users and is already a daily digital hub of millions of Kazakhstanis. Turlov has a vision: to develop one, easy-to-use portal to financial and lifestyle services that can compete, and possibly even beat, similar portals in more established markets.
As Turlov has explained, we want to make digital tools so convenient and available that they become a daily routine of every person, not only of the big-city dwellers.
Motivating Financial Inclusion
Financial inclusion is one of the key areas of the super app initiative. Banking and investment products have long been inaccessible in the rural and underserved areas of Kazakhstan. Having the services directly in the hands of the users through smartphones, Freedom Holding is closing the gap, enabling people to save,...
