Daulet Hamituly Sembaev (Kazakh: Дәулет Хамитұлы Сембаев, romanized: Däulet Hamitūly Sembaev; 10 August 1935 – 15 November 2021) was a Kazakh politician and financier who was the First Deputy Prime Minister of Kazakhstan from 1992 to 1993 and the Deputy Prime Minister of Kazakhstan from 1991 to 1992. He served as the chairman of the National Bank of Kazakhstan from 1993 until 1996, when he was appointed as a member of the Kazakh Senate.
Although being a metallurgist by profession, Sembaev worked in various state financial positions in the early years of Kazakhstan's independence where he oversaw the formation of the newly sovereign national currency which earned him a nickname as the "father of tenge", implementation of the pension reforms, and heading the Kazakh National Bank, Kazkommertsbank, and the Kazakh Association of Financiers.[1] To this day, Sembaev is viewed as one of the founders of the modern Kazakh financial system.[1]
