Statements and guidelines

Ethical Code of Conduct

Ethical Code of Conduct is the general statement of intent to ensure the ethical conduct of the Financial Supervisory Authority (FIN-FSA) in all circumstances.

The Code of Conduct is based on the values of the FIN-FSA. The values guide our activities and our everyday decision-making. 

The most important purpose of the Code of Conduct is to provide on a general level a common set of ethical ground rules about what is and is not permitted in the organisation and what is the expected way of acting. The purpose of the Code of Conduct is therefore to tell the organisation what it means to act in accordance with the values in a principled way. A further purpose is that organisation understands what type of ethical perspective is expected of it and what its responsibilities are.

The Code of Conduct also communicates outside the organisation about the FIN-FSA’s commitment to ethical activity.
