CORPORATE GOVERNANCE AND COMPLIANCE

Corporate governance and compliance

For AIM Capital, our values are not financial results, but driving positive environmental and social impact in the communities where we live and do business.

Compliance Framework

AIM Capital as a European holding company operating worldwide, including the EU, the USA, Switzerland and other countries, is dedicated to cultivating and upholding a strong culture of ethics and compliance. 

We prioritize conducting our business activities in strict adherence to the letter and the spirit of applicable laws, regulations and policies.

Our compliance and  ethics program is founded on three core principles:

·       Prevention: we focus on promoting a culture of ethics and integrity to proactively prevent compliance issues.
This goal is accomplished through our commitment to compliance and through our Code of Conduct, compliance policies, training programs, third party due diligence and other compliance efforts to minimize potential risks.

·       Identification: we employ various strategies to identify potential compliance issues, such as rigorous testing conducted by both internal and external audit teams, diligent monitoring by our compliance team, and investigations of concerns reported by employees and third parties.

·       Mitigation: we are committed to thoroughly assessing the underlying causes of compliance issues and continuously improving our controls and processes to mitigate the risk of recurrence. We maintain a steadfast commitment to disciplining employees who violate our policies and standards and we do not engage in business relationships with third parties who fail to meet our rigorous ethical standards.
