Â鶹ÉçI’s supply chain

Â鶹ÉçI recognizes that whilst financial services are not considered to be particularly sensitive to modern slavery practices, such as forced labour or exploitation, Â鶹ÉçI has a responsibility to ensure no modern slavery or human trafficking is taking place in its business or supply chains. Â鶹ÉçI continues to monitor its business and supply chain and employees who are responsible for procuring goods and services understand the requirements of the Modern Slavery Act 2015 to ensure there is no suspected modern slavery or human trafficking taking place either within the business or in connection with the vendors we use.
