At Valetime Group, we are committed to conducting our business with the highest standards of integrity and compliance. 

As a global management consulting firm, we recognise the critical importance of adhering to international sanctions regulations. 

These regulations are designed to support global security, promote ethical business practices, and prevent illegal activities such as money laundering and terrorism financing.

Our approach to Sanctions Compliance is aligned with guidance from the UK Government, HM Treasury, the Office of Financial Sanctions Implementation (OFSI), and professional bodies. 

We strive to maintain a culture of compliance across our organisation, ensuring that all employees are aware of their responsibilities and the importance of sanctions compliance in our day-to-day activities. Through regular training, robust internal controls, and continuous monitoring, we aim to uphold the integrity of our operations and contribute to the broader efforts of maintaining global peace and security.

We understand that adherence to international sanctions regulations is not only a legal obligation but also a crucial aspect of our responsibility as a global business. 

Ukraine
Valetime Group is fully committed to complying with the targeted sanctions implemented by the International Community in response to Russia's escalation of hostilities, to support Ukraine. We actively support initiatives in Ukraine, recognising the critical importance of contributing to the country's economic and social stability during these challenging times. By adhering to international sanctions and engaging in positive initiatives in Ukraine, we demonstrate our dedication to ethical business practices and global security. Our efforts in Ukraine also reflect our strong support for our Ukrainian colleagues, partners and friends; and our commitment to the "Homes for Ukraine" scheme, assisting with their relocation and integration into the UK. This initiative underscores our dedication to providing meaningful support during this critical time.

Our sanctions compliance policy includes the following key elements:

Due Diligence and Risk Assessment: We conduct thorough due diligence on all clients and transactions to ensure they do not involve sanctioned entities or individuals. This includes screening against the UK Sanctions List and other relevant international sanctions lists.

Compliance Training and Awareness: Our staff receive regular training on sanctions compliance, ensuring they are fully aware of the latest regulations and best practices. This helps to maintain a high level of awareness and readiness to identify and address potential compliance issues.

Monitoring and Reporting: We have robust monitoring systems in place to track our transactions and ensure ongoing compliance. We subscribe to regular email updates from UK regulatory bodies, such as OFSI and HM Treasury, as well as international equivalents. 

These updates provide timely information about new sanctions, amendments to existing sanctions, and guidance on compliance practices. 

We perform regular internal audits of our transactions and client engagements to ensure ongoing compliance. Any discrepancies or potential breaches are promptly investigated and addressed.

Any suspected breaches are promptly reported to the relevant authorities, and appropriate remedial actions are taken.

Collaboration and Transparency: We work closely with regulators, legal advisors, and industry peers to stay informed about changes in sanctions laws and to share best practices. Our commitment to transparency ensures that our compliance efforts are credible and verifiable.

By implementing these measures, Valetime Group demonstrates its dedication to ethical business conduct and compliance with international sanctions. This not only safeguards our operations but also contributes to global efforts in maintaining peace and security.
