ANTI BRIBERY AND CORRUPTION (ABC)
The framework for promoting integrity and transparency
SICIM applies a zero tolerance approach to all forms of corruption, whether active or passive, in both the public and private sectors, and operates in full compliance with applicable national and international anti corruption laws.
The Anti Bribery and Corruption (ABC) Procedure defines the reference framework of SICIM Group’s anti corruption prevention system, setting out principles, rules of conduct, roles, responsibilities and control measures aimed at preventing, detecting and managing corruption risks in business activities. The Procedure is an integral part of SICIM’s governance and compliance system and is aligned with:
- the Code of Ethics;
- the Model 231;
- internationally recognized anti corruption standards and best practices.
The provisions of the Procedure apply to all directors, employees, collaborators, business partners and third parties acting on behalf of or in the interest of SICIM. Compliance with anti corruption principles is a fundamental requirement for establishing and maintaining business relationships with the Group.
SICIM promotes a corporate culture based on integrity, transparency and accountability, supported by training activities, monitoring and audit processes, as well as dedicated reporting channels governed by the whistleblowing system, ensuring protection for individuals who report concerns in good faith.
This commitment forms part of SICIM’s broader approach to responsible governance and sustainable development, in line with the principles of the UN Global Compact.
