As a team of young professionals we believe it is important for all of us to abide by a Code of Conduct that requires us to conduct ourselves in an honest, transparent and ethical manner and always act in the best interest of the firm at all times.
All members of the firm must avoid situations in which their personal interest could conflict with the interest of the firm. This is an area in which it is impossible to provide comprehensive guidance but the guiding principle is that conflict, if any, or potential conflict must be disclosed to the Managing Partner for guidance and action as appropriate.
All members of the firm must ensure that their actions in the course of work are totally transparent. It will be necessary for members to voluntarily ensure that areas of operation are transparent and open to audit.
No member of the firm shall disclose or mis-use any confidential information of the firm or its clients. No information either formally or informally shall be shared with other members, outsiders or any other external agency.
No member of the firm shall misuse the firm’s facilities. In the use of such facilities, care shall be taken to ensure that costs are reasonable and there is no wastage.
