Corporate Governance Policies

The Conflict of Interest policy defines a conflict as a situation wherein a director, officer or employee has or appears to have a direct or indirect personal interest in any transaction, which may deter or influence him from acting in the best interests of the Company. Any director, officer or employee involved in an actual or potential conflict of interest is required to immediately disclose said conflict to the Company.
The Corporate Governance Manual defines the Company’s compliance system and identifies the responsibilities of the Board of Directors in relation to good corporate governance. It also states the Company’s policies on disclosures and transparency and mandates the conduct of communication and training programs on corporate governance. The Manual further provides for the rights of all shareholders and the protection of the interest of minority stockholders.
The Code of Business Conduct states the principle that guides 2Go Group directors, officers and employees in the performance of their duties and responsibilities, and in their transactions with investors, suppliers, customers, contractors, creditors, regulators and the general public. The Code underlines the importance of integrity in the relationships and dealings with business partners and highlights the Company’s duties regarding employee welfare, the protection against conflict of interest that may interfere with the independent exercise of one’s best judgement, the protection of material company information and the importance of corporate social responsibility.
