EF conducts business across the globe subjecting our company to the laws and regulations of the various countries and territories in which we operate. WEF expects all of our professional and experienced employees and partners to fully comply with all such applicable laws and regulations wherever they are working. Compliance is the responsibility of everyone.
WEF Compliance function advises and ensures that our company has an appropriate framework of policies, procedures and independent assurance in place to demonstrate to our stakeholders our compliance with applicable laws and regulations in every respect: from WEF physical activity across our supply chain to its hedging activities on regulated exchanges.
Where a local law or regulation is of a higher regulatory requirement than our own internal policies, the higher requirement will always be met. WEF Code of Conduct further provides support and guidance to employees on the high ethical standards and behaviors expected of them. This is the basis of WEF corporate culture and how we do business.
