Ethics, compliance,
and anti-corruption
Developing a corporate culture of ethics is an essential part of our Compliance Model. Integrity and transparency are essential parts of who we are and what we do in the corporate environment and beyond. We realize our objectives in a way that is responsible and creates value for everyone.
All our operations conform to the highest standards of conduct. As a result, during 2020 we had:
• No cases of corruption or bribery
• No reports of breaches of the conduct and ethics code
• No cases related to unfair competition and anti-trust practices, and no penalties regarding actions against free competition.
ETHICS AND COMPLIANCE
SYSTEM
The Ethics and Compliance System applies to every area and process at Canacol, and its scope encompasses shareholders, directors, administrators, employees, and all third parties involved. The system establishes commitments in business ethics, anti-money laundering and anti-financing of terrorism (AML/ATF). It establishes standards for conduct and controls that expressly prevent and prohibit acts of corruption or transnational bribery that could affect our local or international operations.
