Standards

Excellence and the highest standards of ethics are the cornerstones of PriceHorne’s business philosophy. Our success is built on a foundation of personal and professional integrity. We believe that success without integrity is meaningless. To that end, we apply the following principles as the basis of our relationships with each and every client and the community at large.

Ethics and the Law

PriceHorne is strongly committed to the highest standards of ethical conduct, and full compliance with all applicable national and international laws. This includes, for example, those relating to antitrust and promoting fair competition, corporate governance, preventing bribery, illicit payments and corruption, publicly traded securities, labor laws and practices, the environment, human rights laws and internationally recognized standards, and protecting copyright, company assets and other forms of intellectual property. Our goal is not mere minimum legal compliance, but to be among the world’s best in corporate responsibility, practicing good corporate citizenship wherever we do business.

Human Rights

PriceHorne will respect and promote human rights. We recognize, with the international community, that certain human rights should be considered fundamental and universal, based on accepted international laws and practices, such as those of the United Nations’ Universal Declaration of Human Rights, International Labour Organization and Global Compact principles.

Confidentiality

We maintain the confidentiality of information entrusted to us, except when disclosure is authorized or legally mandated. In addition, any proprietary or confidential information disclosed to us will be used only for the purposes for which it was disclosed.

Insider Trading

We will not trade shares or other securities on the basis of material nonpublic information which we may learn in connection with our duties or any transaction we are involved in. In addition, we will not offer benefit or advantage to any third party by using any such information.

Fair Dealing

Every member of the PriceHorne team will deal fairly with our clients. None will take unfair advantage of anyone through manipulation, concealment, abuse or privileged information, misrepresentation of facts, or any other dishonest practice.

Gifts & Bribes

PriceHorne will not pay or offer to pay bribes or illicit payments to government officials, politicians or other political players in order to obtain or retain business.

Conflicts of Interest

We disclose all actual and potential conflicts of interest prior to entering into any business discussions or negotiations. Thereafter, we will not take any actions that could have our interests interfere in any way with the interests of our clients.

Unparalleled Client Service

Our clients’ interests come first. We demonstrate an uncompromising commitment to serve each client with absolute dedication, responsiveness and the highest level of professional integrity, competence and professionalism.
