of this report is to disclose information on greenhouse gas emissions of Scope
1-2-3, determine the company's goals to reduce its carbon footprint, identify
measures to achieve carbon goals. Carbon footprint calculations are based on a
thorough analysis of internal and external documentation and activity data, as

international greenhouse gas protocol (GHG Protocol) for accounting for

Based on the results of the calculations, "Caspiy" Commodity Exchange JSC
decided to fully cover the emissions of 2021 through the acquisition of carbon
offset units from the VERRA standard project registered in the register. After
the acquisition of carbon units, they were written off to cover our emissions.
