  2. The Importer applies to the STB/BRK/LC for financing (it is possible to apply before concluding the contract);
  3. The STB/BRK/LC applies to KazakhExport for insurance coverage;
  4. The BVU/BRK/LC sends the Operator an application for subsidization along with the documents required by the Operator;
  5. The Operator informs the BVU/BRK/LC of the decision taken to subsidize the remuneration for the entire financing period, in turn, the BVU/BRK/LC informs KazakhExport and the Importer of the decision taken to subsidize;
  6. The BVU/BRK/LC concludes a loan agreement/financial leasing agreement with the Importer;
  7. The BVU/BRK/LC concludes an Insurance Agreement with KazakhExport
  8. The BVU/BRK/LC concludes a Subsidy Agreement with the Exporter, Importer and the Operator. The Operator transfers the entire amount of the subsidy to a special account in the BVU/BRK/LC;
