In 2021, the Company started to draft and introduce a new methodology to assess and manage corruption risks. Every quarter, we monitor and revise these risks. In 2021, the assessment covered 100% of our business units, with no corruption risks materialising. The Company's security service checks new contractors for involvement in corruption incidents, inclusion in the register of fraudulent suppliers and pending administrative proceedings. In case of negative findings, the Corporate Relations Department assesses the risk of relations with the contractor in question and recommends mitigants if applicable. Regardless of the outcomes, the Company signs a standard master agreement containing an anti-corruption clause with all selected suppliers and contractors.
