The TMA Questions
Financial Reporting on the Internet
(Annual Report - Zain)


The internet is a good place to get information that is useful to you in your study of accounting. For example, you can find information about current events, professional accounting organizations, and specific companies that may support your study.

In 2007, Zain was previously operating under 6 different iconic brand names in across the Middle East and the African continent, until the decision was taken to fuse all these identities under a unique brand name and a new philosophy as part of the company’s growth ambitions. Thus the Zain brand was born in September 2007 and were, back then, the first mobile telecom company to have a holistic brand across Middle East and the Africa continent. Today, Zain is the Group’s master brand in all the countries across the Middle East and Africa where the company operates except for Lebanon where it operate as ‘touch’ under a management contract.
The Zain brand is positioned to be simple, memorable and easy to pronounce across the global markets. The name also has the added benefit of being rich in positive connotations in several languages. For example, in Arabic, Zain means ‘beautiful’,’ good’ or ’ wonderful’, while in Latin the word means ‘dark horse’ (of good pedigree). (https://www.zain.com/ar/)
