Whistleblowing

Secure system for reporting alleged malpractices, even anonymously, if necessary.

General

The integrity and reputation of Swisscanto are among the most important assets of the company. For this reason, the Swisscanto-companies rely on their employees and third parties (e.g. customers, suppliers, competitors) to learn of alleged malpractices within the organisation. Employees who submit a report in good faith do not have to fear any disadvantageous consequences.

Reporting platform

Swisscanto has created a highly secure reporting platform (BKMS® reporting system) maintained by an external, independent reporting office (law firm) to report suspected misconduct within its organisation, including anonymously if desired. Examples of malpractice include violations of criminal, regulatory or administrative laws as well as other legal regulations and internal rules. Please direct customer complaints as usual to our contact offices:

Further process

Confidentiality

All information and investigations are handled confidentially. The employees of the report-processing office are subject to business secrecy.
