TOWARDS THE FUTURE WITH A

PRINCIPLED APPROACH

2022 INTEGRATED ANNUAL REPORT

The earthquake that ravaged Kahramanmaraş on February 6, 2023 deeply hurt our entire country and left us all in a state of mourning.

The Albaraka Türk family wish God's mercy on the souls of our citizens who lost their lives in this disaster, extend our condolences to their relatives, and pray for our injured citizens to regain their health and their loved ones as rapidly as possible.

We will overcome this challenging process with unity, resilience and solidarity

In the moments after the disaster struck, we immediately mobilized all our resources and sought to heal our wounds. At our Bank's Emergency Crisis Management Committee, we discussed all of our plans at all levels and carried out all activities necessary to swiftly overcome this sensitive process.

From the very outset, we supported the efforts to save the lives of those trapped under the rubble with our colleagues who hold search and rescue and first aid certificates and the NESAR (Search and Rescue) Association. We directed the most essential supplies to the region in order to maintain the vital functions of our citizens who were rescued from the wreckage.

In order to swiftly meet their needs for shelter and heating, we provided the most important needs such as generators, winter tents, hydrophore and water heater systems, blankets and heaters to the victims. We have continuously delivered food parcels, cleaning and hygiene materials to those in need in the region.

In coordination with various NGOs, along with official institutions and organizations, we continued to deliver our aid materials by identifying urgent vital needs on site.

With the devoted efforts of our Bank's Social Responsibility Club and our volunteer friends, we continued to work unwaveringly to meet the needs of the people of the region.

By temporarily closing our branches in the earthquake zone, we set out about ensuring the safety of life and property of our colleagues and their families in the affected area.

We maintained our support and closely monitored the situation of our personnel and their families in the disaster area. We provided cash support to all of our personnel in the affected areas. We will closely monitor the progress of the process and continue to provide support without leaving anyone behind.

Doing our part by providing additional convenience in finance

We postponed the repayment of loan installments of all retail finance customers affected by the earthquake and our customers excluding retail finance In addition to postponing the repayment of credit card debts for all our customers in the earthquake zone, we also suspended all automatic collections.

We sent mobile service vehicles to the region in order to ensure there was no disruption in banking services where branch buildings had collapsed. We also removed transaction fees for banking services.

In the coming period, we will continue to approach the needs and requirements of our customers affected by the disaster with sensitivity and take whatever measures are necessary.

Healing Wounds in the Disaster Area

Life in the disaster area is being reconstructed with the removal of the debris as we seek to heal our wounds. We have started the construction of containers and tents with vital inventories and are providing them to our citizens who were affected by the disaster.

We delivered children's books from Albaraka Publishing to the earthquake zone in order to contribute to the rehabilitation efforts which we initiated to help children overcome the psychological trauma caused by the disaster.

We will continue to work with all our might to offer support, by closely following this process which will require a long-term struggle in order to heal from the wounds of this disaster.

Wishing condolences for our Nation…
