The analysis went through several consecutive stages: reconstruction of expert lenses, identification of quarterly facts and markers, synthesis of key storylines, formation of signal nodes, construction of the Integral Signal Radar and modeling of cascades of possible change. This process made it possible to move from scattered expert observations to a structured map of economic tensions.
The pilot produced two interconnected results. The first is the Signal Radar of Kazakhstan’s economy, in which 40 nodes are distributed across six sectors and four rings of manifestation. The second is a set of six cascades of possible change, showing how tensions may be transmitted across consumption, finance, investment, exports, energy, institutions and the external environment.
The significance of the pilot issue lies in the fact that the economic agenda was presented not as a set of isolated problems, but as a system of interconnected signals. This first measurement creates a foundation for further monitoring, quarter-by-quarter comparison and the development of TALAP’s regular strategic foresight instrument.
