Report Quality Analysis
- Report covered data from 2009.
- Kazakhstan has a record of steady reporting, leading to strong regularity and timeliness scores.
- However, data reliability appears to have decreased. While the number of companies that participated in the reporting process grew from 109 in 2008 to 123 in 2009, fewer companies provided audited data (89 in 2008, compared to 79 in 2009).
- Kazakhstan’s most recent report disaggregates by revenue stream and includes pre- and post-reconciliation figures.
- Like previous reports, it fails to disaggregate by company, project or commodity.
- The report lacks a materiality definition, an overall summary and a definition of terms.
- The report provides no specific information on KazMunayGaz, a large SOE. Its payments to the government are lumped in with those of private companies, and there is no information about its revenue receipts.
