Awareness of the risks of corruption associated with the nature and characteristics of the business, guides ASTM to go beyond regulatory compliance, identifying measures to prevent corruption as an integral part of the Group’s social responsibility. In this context, in line with the principles set out in the Code of Ethics and Conduct and in the Organizational Model pursuant to Legislative Decree 231/2001, inspired by the Anti-Corruption best practices and the international standard ISO 37001: 2016, in 2018 an Anti-Corruption Policy has been defined in order to mitigate the risks of engaging in conduct attributable to corruption in the countries where the Group operates.

The Internal Audit Department is the body responsible for overseeing the implementation and distribution of this Policy.
