Corporate Compliance

The topic of Compliance - as the abidance by the statutory provisions and the company's guidelines - has significantly gained in importance during the past years. On the one hand, the reason for this can be found in the increasing complexity of the regulatory and societal framework. Compliance topics, on the other hand, now occupy a more prominent position within the scope of public interest. The reputation of a company and its economic success can be detrimentally affected by compliance violations. Therefore a risk-oriented and preventative compliance strategy is more important today than ever before.

One of EnBW's goals is making the adherence to external and internal rules an integral part of the thinking and action of all company bodies, executives and employees. Simultaneously the trust of business associates, stockholders and the capital market should be increased.

The Department of Corporate Compliance is responsible especially for the group wide regulations for corruption prevention, coordinates all further compliance activities and is available to managers and employees as the central point of contact and consultant for compliance questions.
