and Transparency Policy

Ethical Values

Nixus adheres to ethical standards set forth in a Code of Conduct that all its personnel must observe. Nixus places its clients at the heart of its operations, aiming to build lasting relationships based on mutual value creation and trust. It delivers value through professional advice and the efficient provision of products and services tailored to client expectations.

Good Business Practices

Nixus operates with the highest level of integrity, applying a strong sense of fairness and clarity to all its activities; transparency, diligence, and truthfulness are the guiding principles of its client relationships. The company strives to enhance service quality by giving its best effort and by planning and overseeing its professional activities responsibly. It delivers its services with the utmost competence and due care.

Transparency

Transparency in client relationships is a fundamental value for Nixus. Accordingly, Nixus employees provide clients with complete, clear, truthful, accurate, and timely information regarding the products and services offered. Care is taken to avoid omitting essential data that could lead to an incorrect decision.

Anti-Money Laundering Policy

Nixus maintains a Procedures Manual for the Prevention of Money Laundering and Terrorist Financing. This manual establishes policies and actions that Nixus authorities and employees must follow to minimize risks associated with the use of the institution and/or its services for money laundering and terrorist financing. These measures ensure compliance with applicable national laws and regulations, as well as with international standards and best practices for preventing such crimes.

Contingency Plans

Contingency plans address the continuity of operations in the event of major incidents. These plans identify critical aspects of business continuity, locate key internal and external risks, and assess potential damage or failures and their magnitude. Likewise, they prescribe alternative solutions and courses of action in the event of significant damage or failures, specifying who is responsible for issuing instructions and determining the measures to be taken.

Security Policy

We adhere to strict security standards to safeguard the integrity of personnel, as well as documents and valuables—whether our own or those belonging to third parties. Uruguayan regulations in this area cover both the safekeeping and handling of valuables within company premises and their transport in public areas. Generally speaking, the Group's companies employ security measures that exceed these regulatory requirements.
