Abstract: Taking the data in Kazakhstan as the sample, this paper selects representative synchronous variables in four subsystems such as external financial market, stock market, banking and macroeconomic fundamentals. Based on the CRITIC empowerment, the financial stress index is obtained as dependent variable by using the three-level indices through three-time Synthesis. Taking the variables of macro-economic and monetary credit policy, the indices of international economic relations and trading partner countries, and the lagged dependent variable as independent variables, the optimal prediction equation of systemic financial risk is constructed by using the stepwise regression method and the practical risk early-warning index system in Kazakhstan has been established, and by using it the risk status in Kazakhstan has been predicted. The results show that the synthetic total stress index has the characteristics of periodic change. The stress prediction results from July 2018 to July 2019 show that the total stress is decreasing with increasing amplitude. By identifying the stress periods, Kazakhstan is basically in a moderate stress period and began to decline to a relative safety one in the forecast period. On the whole, the forecast results are in good agreement with the economic and financial development reality in Kazakhstan.
