The Company has put in place the necessary systems to ensure thorough risk management and compliance, and established a Risk / Compliance Committee to ensure the appropriateness of business operations through the promotion of risk management and compliance activities. This committee meets quarterly to discuss compliance, where reports from various HIS Group companies are shared and deliberated upon.
