The Bremnes Seashore Group has zero tolerance for corruption. This also includes indirect corruption and trading in influence.
Indirect corruption is when an intermediary offers bribes on behalf of a third party. An example of indirect corruption is when an agent, exporter or consultant pays a bribe on behalf of a client.
Trading in influence is another form of corruption. It occurs when someone engages an intermediary to exercise influence on behalf of a third party. This may occur, for example, when a firm pays an employee of another firm to influence one of that employee’s co-workers without the co-worker being aware of the situation.
To avoid the risk of indirect corruption, the Bremnes Seashore Group will carefully assess and follow up our business associates and partners. We shall also avoid all forms of trading in influence. We will use professional lobbyists, etc, only with the approval of the Group Compliance Manager and always with full openness about the fact that those individuals are working on behalf of the Bremnes Seashore Group.
