High ethical standards

An important foundation for our success

Group Code of Conduct

High ethical standards are at the very heart of AAK and strongly connected to our purpose, Making Better Happen™. To realize this purpose, it is of vital importance that each individual in our organization is financially, socially and ethically conscious and responsible.

The AAK Group Code of Conduct

Our Group Code of Conduct (the Code), along with our policies and governance rules, guides our activities and shows stakeholders how we conduct business. All partners and suppliers must follow relevant requirements outlined in separate codes. It’s our shared responsibility to make the right decisions, act ethically, and be accountable. By consistently living our Code, we build the foundation for success. The Code reflects AAK’s commitment to ethical standards, and by understanding and living its commitments, we foster a culture that drives better performance.

Whistleblowing service

Our organization strives to achieve transparency and a high level of business ethics. Our whistleblowing service offers a possibility to alert the company/organization about suspicions of misconduct in confidence. It is an important tool for reducing risks and maintaining trust in our operations by enabling us to detect and act on possible misconduct at an early stage. Whistleblowing can be done by any person openly or anonymously.
