Compliance and Anti-Bribery Program

GranEnergia maintains a Compliance and Anti-Bribery Program aligned with its core values: good governance, safety, integrity, quality, and sustainability. The company positions itself as a transparent and ethical business partner, prioritizing relationships with organizations that share similar principles.

All members, partners, and stakeholders must adhere to the highest standards of conduct, following the guidelines outlined in the Code of Ethics and Conduct, as well as other applicable policies and regulations. Compliance with local anti-bribery laws and international regulations is mandatory.

The company has an independent compliance unit, separate from business and audit areas, ensuring impartiality and effectiveness in preventing conflicts of interest. Additionally, GranEnergia guarantees the Anti-Bribery Compliance Function full independence and authority, providing the necessary resources for its activities.

Beyond meeting legal requirements, GranEnergia reinforces its commitment to ethics and corporate governance, fostering a culture of integrity across all its operations.
