The Second Massimov Government (Kazakh: Мәсімовтың екінші үкіметі, romanized: Mäsımovtyñ ekınşı ükımetı; Russian: Второе правительство Масимова) was the 9th composition under the Government of Kazakhstan that was led by Prime Minister Karim Massimov. It was formed on 2 April 2014 after Prime Minister Serik Akhmetov resigned from office just weeks after Kazakhstan's currency tenge lost its value, causing an inflation which led to protests in the cities.^[1] As a result, President Nursultan Nazarbayev appointed Massimov, who was quickly approved by the Parliament to be the Prime Minister due to his previous record of promoting business-friendly policies during his previous term as the Prime Minister from 2007 to 2012.^[2]
