Code
of Ethics and Professional
Conduct for the Strathmor Group+
Because we believe that all
public bodies should have a general
code of behaviour, we too offer
the following:
Our Code of Ethics and Professional
Conduct signifies a binding assumption
by all Strathmor Associates and
procedures of the obligation
of self-discipline above and
beyond the requirements of the
law. Acceptance of this Code
is mandatory for all Associates
and employees. Failure to abide
by the Code will serve as a basis
for disciplinary action, up to
and including expulsion from
the Strathmor Group with notification
to their professional bodies.
- We will at all times observe
the highest principles of
honesty and fair practice
- We will at all times place
the interests of clients
as primary,
and serve every client
with integrity, competence,
and
independence.
- We will assume an independent
position with regard
to clients, and will provide
advice which
is based on impartial
consideration
of all pertinent facts
and responsible opinions.
- We will treat all information
concerning the affairs
of clients, gathered
during engagements for
those clients, as strictly
confidential.
- We will not accept
any fee, commission,
or other
valuable consideration
for our services,
from any one other than
the client by whom
we are retained,
and always through the
Strathmor Group.
- We will accept only
those engagements
which we
are qualified to
undertake and which
we believe
will
provide real benefits
to the client.
- We will, prior
to undertaking
work
on behalf of
a client, ensure
that the client
has a clear understanding
of the nature
and scope of the
work, and of
the fee structure and
associated
costs which
will apply, and
the
fiscal currency
of the engagement.
- We will not permit
or cause any
employee or
agent acting
on our
behalf to do
anything which,
if done
by us, would
constitute
a violation of
this
Code.
- We will consider
English to
be our main
language
of communication,
but shall
endeavour to use the
language
of the
client wherever
possible.
