With a view to heightening vigilance, a specif ic
system for raising awareness of compliance with
the Code of Conduct and Insider Code is deployed
on a half-yearly basis among employees occupying
“sensitive” functions, designated as permanent
or occasional insiders within the meaning of the
regulatory requirements of the Moroccan Capital
Market Authority (AMMC).
The Insider Code, an addendum to the Code
of Conduct, details the Group's self-imposed
rules of conduct for f inancial transactions on
the market and operations involving Attijariwafa
bank shares, targeting employees in this type
of position, identif ied as “Insiders”. This Code
def ines the provisions to which the employees
concerned are subject by virtue of their positions
and responsibilities within the Group, including
security measures to prevent any unauthorized
communication of conf idential insider information,
in line with current regulations.
The international dimension of the Attijariwafa
bank Group requires strict management of
reputational and brand-image risks, as well as
large-scale control of risks of all kinds, both in
Morocco and in the countries where the Group
operates.
The year 2024 was also marked by the
transposition of the S.M.A-C system to the
subsidiaries, thus consolidating a uniform ethical
culture throughout the Group. Building on the
experience and feedback of the parent company,
the subsidiaries are falling in line with a proactive
approach to risk prevention and the harmonization
of practices, taking into account local and
regulatory specif icities as part of the transposition
of the Group system.
The Group actively participates in initiatives and meetings organized by regulators
and other specialized bodies, contributing to discussions and advances in business
ethics and the f ight against corruption. This involvement goes hand in hand with
constant advocacy for the adoption and reinforcement of best practices.
