Code of Business Conduct and Ethics
We are an organisation guided by a strong set of values. These values are not merely aspirational words — they serve as fundamental principles that shape the way we operate. They reflect what we expect of ourselves and one another, influencing our decisions and defining our culture.
I. Purpose+
This Code of Business Conduct and Ethics was adopted to further the Company's commitment to conducting its business with honesty and integrity. It applies to all employees, independent contractors, officers and directors of Topuz & Partners and its affiliates. It aims to ensure fair and accurate financial reporting, ethical conduct, timely reporting of breaches, honest behaviour including the management of conflicts of interest, a culture of honesty and accountability, and the prevention of misconduct.
II. Financial Reports and Other Records+
Team members are responsible for accurate and complete reporting of financial information within their areas of responsibility. Books, records, accounts, and financial statements must be maintained with reasonable detail and must accurately, fairly, and completely reflect the transactions and events to which they relate. No false or misleading entries may be made in Company records under any circumstances.
III. Conflicts of Interest+
A conflict of interest arises when an activity or personal interest is incompatible with or contrary to the best interests of the Company. Team members must not use their position to secure improper personal benefits. Any situation, transaction, or relationship that may result in an actual or potential conflict of interest must be disclosed to the Company and avoided, unless expressly approved.
IV. Corporate Opportunities+
Team members have a duty to act in the best interests of the Company. They must not exploit business opportunities that come to their attention through the use of Company property, information, or their position, unless the opportunity has first been offered to the Company and formally declined.
V. Protection of Assets, Confidentiality & Communications+
All team members have a duty to protect the Company's assets. In the course of their work, team members may become privy to confidential or proprietary information. They are expected to maintain the confidentiality of such information, use it solely for authorised business purposes, and limit sharing to individuals who require access for legitimate business reasons. This obligation continues after employment with the Company has ended.
VI. Fair Dealing+
The Company does not seek competitive advantages through illegal or unethical business practices. Each team member should endeavour to deal fairly with the Company's customers, service providers, suppliers, competitors, and team members. No team member should take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse of privileged information, or misrepresentation of material facts.
VII. Compliance with Laws, Rules & Regulations+
All team members are expected to comply with all applicable laws when performing their duties on behalf of the Company. Key areas include competition law, health and safety, fair employment practices (including anti-discrimination and harassment), political activities, and anti-bribery laws including the UK Bribery Act 2010.
VIII. Compliance & Reporting+
Team members are encouraged to seek guidance when uncertain about the best course of action. If a team member becomes aware of or suspects a violation of this Code or applicable laws, they must report it immediately to the Company's internal legal counsel. All reports will be kept confidential to the extent possible. The Company strictly prohibits any form of retaliation for making good-faith reports.
IX–XII. Waivers, Amendment, Protected Activity, Acknowledgment+
Any amendment or waiver of any provision of this Code must be approved in writing by the Board. The Company reserves the right to amend this Code at any time. Nothing in this Code limits team members from engaging in Protected Activity (including filing complaints with government agencies or discussing unlawful acts in the workplace). All new team members must sign an acknowledgment form confirming they have read and agree to comply with the Code.
