This comprehensive document serves as the ethical road map for KCVPG employees and companies, and provides the guidelines by which the group conducts its businesses.

KCVPG companies have consistently adhered to the values and ideals articulated by the Founder for over 150 years. The KCVPG Code of Conduct was first formalized by Mr. EK. It articulates the Group’s values and ideals that guide and govern the conduct of our companies as well as our colleagues in all matters relating to business. Today, the Code is a bedrock on which we base our individual, as well as leadership commitments to core KCVPG values.

The KCVPG Code of Conduct outlines our commitment to each of our stakeholders, including the communities in which we operate, and is our guiding light when we are sometimes faced with business dilemmas that leave us at ethical crossroads. The Code is also dynamic in that it has been periodically refreshed in order to remain contemporary and contextual to the changes in law and regulations. However, it remains unaltered at its core.

Our stellar reputation and success as a business entity have been defined by the powerful commitment and adherence to the core values and principles expressed in this Code, by all our employees, directors, and partners. I trust every KCVPG colleague and KCVPG company will continue to not only comply with the laws and regulations that govern our business interests around the world but will continue to set new standards of ethical conduct that will generate deep respect and inspire emulation by others.
