What should you expect?
Whether you chose to report your concern in person or via one of our secured reporting channels, Cartamundi will handle your concern in a diligent and confidential manner to ensure due investigation and follow-up of the matter and feedback on the status of the matter you have raised and the measures we are taking within a reasonable timeframe in accordance with applicable laws.
Cartamundi has appointed impartial persons who are competent to follow up on reported concerns and who will maintain communication with the whistleblower and, where necessary, ask for further information from and provide feedback to the whistleblower. These impartial persons may be internal and/or external to Cartamundi, depending on the location and circumstances.
To the extent legally allowed, Cartamundi will protect your identity and the identity of any other person involved in the report.
Cartamundi will not tolerate any type of retaliation against individuals who report concerns honestly and in good faith.

Other resources
We are confident that issues can be dealt with “in house” using our secured reporting channels. We acknowledge that there may be circumstances that justify reporting issues to competent authorities.
In any case, making information on wrongdoing available in the public domain should be carefully considered as you may not be guaranteed the same protection against retaliation under applicable law. In general, you should only use public disclosure as last recourse when internal and external reporting channels have failed or would not provide adequate protection, or in case of imminent or manifest danger to the public interest.
