Ethical principles such as integrity and loyalty have always been central to ECF Group's strategy and value system. Our respect for these principles is formalised in a comprehensive anti-corruption system.

Anti-corruption mechanism :

A Code of Conduct
designed to remind all Group employees of the right or wrong course of action in specific potentially risky situations that they may face in the course of their daily work.

The report can be sent :
