We are proud to be the first African company to obtain ISO 37001 certification for the anti-corruption management system.

We believe integrity is one of the pillars of our culture and its critical for our long-term success. We work to enable the right conditions and inspire our employees to act with integrity on everything they do.

The Compliance & Risk Management department reports directly to the Board of Directors ensuring its independence and access to the highest management level within the company.

Aenergy operates in several different legal and business environments. To ensure our staff meets the highest standards of professional behavior, we established within our Code of Conduct rules of engagement based on principles of honesty, integrity, dignity, respectability, professional diligence and fairness.
As a transversal document to the company, the Code of Conduct, describes the fundamental principles that shape the way we work. Shared throughout the whole organization, it covers a wide range of topics about how to interact with customers, business partners and amongst ourselves.

The Compliance & Risk Management department is the main point of contact for employees, shareholders, business partners, customers and public on all matters that relate to our Code of Conduct.

Corruption Prevention

Corrupt actions include offering, giving, promising, extorting or receiving bribes, mediating bribery, making payments to simplify administrative, bureaucratic and other formalities in any form, including cash, other valuables, services or other tangible or intangible benefits from any individuals or organizations or to any individuals or organizations, including government representatives, public groups, private companies and politicians.

These actions are not tolerated in our practices and we expect the same behavior from our business partners. The C&RM department is responsible for the management of an anti-corruption system, having obtained the international certificate ISO 37001. This system was designed to help all Aenergy stakeholders to avoid events of this nature.
