Ethical and Transparent Practices

Corporate governance forms the bedrock of the Company’s business on a day-to-day basis. With good governance an important pillar of our operations, we have always sought to elevate the level of transparency and ensure that integrity, accountability and fairness are hallmarks of its dealings with shareholders, customers, investors and other stakeholders. Our Board appreciates the importance of ethics and its contribution to value creation and is committed to instilling ethical values and transparent practices throughout the Company.

Code of Conduct

Our values and culture continue to be the cornerstones of governance. We are of the view that the correct institutional culture must flow from the top as there is no substitute for ethical leadership. We have formulated and adopted a Code of Conduct (‘the Code’) for the members of the Board and the Senior Management in terms of requirements of the Listing Regulations. Our Code is integral to the way we operate, laying the general principles designed to guide all Directors and Senior Management for the ethical conduct of business and compliance of laws. Our Directors, Committees and Management have affirmed their responsibility for embedding good governance practices into our business in consistence with the provisions of the Code.
