Any employee is obligated to strive for the extension of the Company's interests within legal limits and be responsible for preventing damage or loss to the Company's interests. The Company expects all employees to abide by this Code in carrying out their duties and functions so as to preserve public trust and to ensure the Company's sustainable growth and development.

Scope

This policy applies to all the Employees of the Company. "Employee" includes all individuals on full‑time or part‑time employment with the Company, with permanent, probationary, trainee, retainer, temporary or contractual employment. The Company also expects its managers to lead by example and perform their duties in accordance with this policy.

Conflict of Interest

Each employee is expected to avoid situations in which his or her financial or other personal interests or dealings are, or may be, in conflict with the interests of the Company. Employees are expected to act in the Company's interest at all times. Employees shall not engage or appoint directly or indirectly their family members and relatives in the Company either as an employee, vendor or consultant without prior approval of the Compliance Officer of the Company.

Protection of Use of Company Property

All employees are responsible for protecting and taking reasonable steps to prevent the theft or misuse of, or damage to, Company assets, including all kinds of physical assets, movable and immovable and tangible or intangible property, corporate information and intellectual property such as inventions, copyrights, patents, trademarks and technology used in carrying out their responsibilities. All employees must use all equipment, tools, materials, supplies, and Company time only for Company’s legitimate business interests. Company property must not be borrowed, loaned, or disposed of at any stage whatsoever in nature. All employees must use and maintain Company property and resources efficiently and with due care and diligence.

Confidential Information

During their term of employment and thereafter, employees shall not, except in the proper course of their duties, divulge any confidential information to any person, or remove any confidential information, in whole or in part, from the Company’s premises without prior written permission. Employees shall use their best endeavors to prevent unauthorized publication or disclosure of any trade secrets or confidential information concerning the organization, business, clients or finances of the Company, or any of its dealings which may come to their knowledge during or in the course of employment. Employees shall keep with complete secrecy all confidential information entrusted to them, and shall not use or attempt to use any such information in any manner which may injure or cause loss either directly or indirectly to the Company and/or its business or clients, or may be reasonably likely to do so.
