Published annually covering the period 1 January, 2022 to 31 December, 2022, the SR provides an in-depth overview of Zain\u2019s operations in relation to Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) KPIs across its markets.<\/p>

Zain\u2019s SR is assured by Ernst & Young (Al Aiban, Al Osaimi and Partners) with a limited assurance engagement; and further details regarding the assurance can be found here<\/a>. The report was reviewed, assessed, and approved by the Vice-Chairman and Group CEO, Chief Financial Officer, Chief Sustainability Officer, and relevant Executive Management at Zain Group.<\/p>

Zain\u2019s countries of operation referenced in this report include Kuwait, Bahrain, Iraq, Jordan, Saudi Arabia, Sudan, and South Sudan. The company\u2019s headquarters are based in Kuwait. Zain holds a 15.5% stake in INWI, Morocco through a joint venture. As Zain does not manage INWI operationally, this operation is not included in the scope of the SR. All operations included in this report are also referenced in the company\u2019s financial statements that can be found here, for the reporting period of 1 January, 2022 to 31 December, 2022.<\/p>

The SR is based on the company\u2019s materiality assessment and was developed using the AA1000 Accountability Principles (AA1000AP) 2018; the Global Reporting Initiatives (GRI) standards; and the Sustainability Accounting Standards Board (SASB) that apply to the Telecommunications Sustainability Accounting Standard.<\/p>

In this edition of the SR, the Task Force on Climate-Related Financial Disclosure (TCFD) is also included as Zain continues to enhance its business strategy and operations and embed efforts to tackle climate-related risks and opportunities across its operations.<\/p>

The report is also based on the United Nations Guiding Principles (UNGP) on Business and Human Rights Reporting Framework, as well as the ESG Reporting Guide published by Boursa Kuwait, which is in line with the Kuwait Vision 2035. The SR contains disclosures on the company\u2019s alignment to the United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) principles.<\/p>

Some information deemed significant and mentioned in previous reports is repeated in this edition, while redundant or easily available information may have been omitted to ensure fluidity and relevance of the current report. The SR also describes situations where considerable organizational changes have taken place during the reporting period.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
