Putting Integrity, Transparency And Responsibility Into Action

Integrity, transparency and responsibility characterize the way Axiros conducts business.

Operating with a strong sense of integrity is critical to maintain trust and credibility with our customers, partners, employees, society and other stakeholders. Such trust and credibility require transparency in how we conduct business and confidentiality when we conduct business to protect business assets and the privacy of individuals.

Creating an environment of transparency in the conduct of business is a high priority for all of us. Our Code of Business Ethics reflects our commitment to operate with truthfulness in our dealings and communications to the marketplace.

Axiros is operated in accordance with the principles set forth in this Code. Everyone - from the members of the Board of Directors and the executive management to each individual working for Axiros - will be held accountable for meeting these standards.
