Ethics and Corporate Governance
Good practices in Ethics and Corporate Governance are integrated into our sustainability strategy and value creation model. We are committed to complying with the current legislation that applies to us and to carrying out the best practices that ensure an orderly, viable, transparent and sustained institutional operation over time, while protecting the institution from anything that may affect its reputation and stability.
Governance and operational structure
Nacional Monte de Piedad is legally constituted as a Private Assistance Institution (IAP).
Under this legal figure, the highest governing body corresponds to a Board of Trustees, which is made up of seven members, who look after the interests and assets of the institution.
We have an operational structure organized into nine departments and a general audit. In 2023, Engineer Javier de la Calle led this team as the general director.
A key element in the ethics and governance structure of Nacional Monte de Piedad is its Comprehensive Ethics System, which is the set of actions, people and processes that seek to foster relationships between collaborators, clients, suppliers, donees and society in general that are ethical, transparent and free of corruption, operating under the bases of respect, honesty and responsibility.
Its components are
- Code of ethics
- Declarations of knowledge and adherence to the Code of Ethics
- Communication and dissemination
- Ethics Group
- Your Ethics Line
- Reception and Care Groups
- Declarations of Conflict of Interest
- Policies and guidelines
