Code of Conduct & Ethics
Our simple and overriding principle in all business conduct is honesty. This one word has deep and constant meaning for us. Our principles are
:: To act honestly and fairly at all times when dealing with clients, customers and counterparties and to be a good steward of their interests.
:: We strongly believe in honour and committment. Truthful, honest and honorable conduct in business is extremely important to us and is fundamental to our ethos.
:: To act with integrity in fulfilling the responsibilities of our contracts and appointment and seek to avoid any acts, omissions or business practices which damage the reputation of our organisation or which are deceitful, oppressive or improper and to promote high standards of conduct.
::To observe applicable law, regulations and professional conduct standards and to interpret and apply them to the best of our ability, according to principles rooted in trust, honesty and integrity.
::When executing contracts, providing services or engaging in any form of dealings, to observe the standards of market integrity, good practice and conduct required by, or expected of, participants in that market.
::Transparency and full disclosure are extremely important to us and thus we say “no” far more than “yes” when we are in doubt either about our abilities or about potential conflicts of interest. We manage expectations well by being forthright in our abilities and delivery.
::To attain and actively maintain a level of professional competence appropriate to our responsibilities and to commit to continuing learning.
::To strive to uphold the highest personal standards, including rejecting short-term profits.
::Our personal conduct is guided by principles and teachings of great Indian Saint Sri Aubindo, Mahatma Gandhi and the teachings of Lord Krisna in Gita, and we look to them for guidance in our professional and business conduct.
