The Banknote Ethics Initiative (BnEI) is an initiative established to provide ethical business practice, with a focus on the prevention of corruption and on compliance with anti-trust law within the banknote industry. Members must adhere to a strict Code of Ethical Business Practice. All organisations that have signed the Code must become accredited after passing an audit carried out by a third party auditor.
Our policies promote ethical behaviour and sustainability in the way we conduct business.
Our policies set standards for our employees, partners, suppliers, and customers in respect of expected behaviour. Specific policies on anti-corruption and fair competition have been promulgated to provide clear guidance of the corporate expectations. We strive to set an example of the highest ethical and integrity standard in our marketplace, acting in a spirit of respectful entrepreneurship.
Group policies and guidelines include Human Resources, Health and Safety, Security, Environment and Procurement policies which also form part of the overall CSR.
