We help global investors focus on investing and preserving capital in a sustainable and compliant manner.
Our ESG underpins HOI CX activities across all jurisdictions where we or one of our affiliates operate. It sets out our global approach to sustainable purpose and forms the basis of our decisions by focusing on business ethics and compliance, people and culture and community involvement
At the core of this framework is strong governance and a robust risk and compliance framework. This framework is supported by procedures and systems to ensure that we apply, at all times, high levels of personal and professional integrity. With the support of our risk and compliance function we have put in place the necessary policies and procedures including a code of conduct and an initial assessment of the reputation of potential clients, identification and monitoring of our clients (through initial and ongoing screening of clients, ongoing review of clients files and transaction monitoring) as well as ongoing training throughout our employees’ careers to ensure that the highest standards of compliance are embedded right across our Group operations.
We will not enter into, or maintain, relationships with individuals or organisations engaged in, or suspected of having engaged in, illegal or activities which go against its code of ethics. New clients are accepted in accordance not only with applicable laws, rules and standards on money laundering and terrorist financing, and international sanctions but also in accordance with our risk appetite policy. We do not accept clients activities involving money laundering, corruption or bribery, child labor, forced labor, the mining and trade of rough diamonds unless Kimberley certified, destruction of high conservation value areas, ship breaking, products or activities that impinge upon the lands owned or claimed under adjudication by indigenous and/or vulnerable peoples or groups without full documented free prior and informed consent (FPIC) of such peoples or groups.
Our client acceptance processes include a mandatory review of our clients’ activities to ascertain they are not involved in such activities.
Fostering openness, sustainability, and respect are our key objectives. We invest significantly in our people and their working environment by creating and maintaining a safe and healthy working environment and ensuring their ongoing professional and personal development.
We are continually striving to ensure that HOI CX is a great place to work, where our people demonstrate our values in everything they do and where their contributions are welcomed and recognised.
