Business ethics
IXM has established a comprehensive compliance program tailored to the specific requirements of our industry.
It includes policies, procedures, and internal controls which are regularly reviewed to ensure adherence to legal and regulatory obligations. We monitor and stay abreast of changes in laws, regulations, and industry standards that affect our business operations
Code of conduct
As part of the CMOC Group, we must adhere to the CMOC Group Code of Business Conduct. This Code of Business Conduct encompasses various responsibilities and obligations related to business ethics, including anti-corruption measures, and managing conflicts of interest. It emphasizes the promotion of a safe and healthy workplace, the value of diversity and equality, the elimination of all forms of harassment and discrimination, as well as the respect for the environment and the communities in which we operate.
Anti-bribery and corruption
We have a zero tolerance for bribery and corruption. Our policies prohibit to pay, offer, promise, authorize, or receive any gift, payment, or other thing of value with the intent to secure an improper advantage in obtaining or retaining business. We have implemented procedures and controls including a Gift & Entertainment Policy which defines rules and approval threshold related to the acceptance or remittance of gifts, entertainments, and hospitalities by our employees.
Anti-Money Laundering
We do not engage in, assist, or facilitate any transaction that is known or suspected to involve any kind of criminal activity such as money laundering, terrorist financing, or circumvention of economic sanctions. Our internal controls include a systematic due diligence of our business partners as well as a transaction monitoring process.
Raising Concerns and whistleblower protection
Employees and other stakeholders are strongly encouraged to report suspected violations of our Group Code of Business Conduct, policies, standards, or applicable law. We have established a Raising Concerns tool that provides clear and transparent framework for employees and other stakeholders to address complaints and concerns. Grievances can be raised via a Raising Concerns tool (ixm.ethicspoint.com) to protect anonymity of individuals who may fear retaliation and prevent any potential conflict of interest. All concerns and allegations are promptly investigated, and our process ensures that all parties involved are treated fairly and are regularly updated of the progress and outcome of their case. Investigation findings lead to appropriate actions which may include disciplinary measures, policy enhancements, or process improvements.
