Governance

Innospec understands that honest, ethical and transparent conduct is vital. We have established a clear and effective governance structure to ensure that we uphold a robust level of corporate and business integrity. Every employee plays an essential part in complying with local and national laws, rules and regulations.

Our key focus areas:

Legal compliance

Understanding that honest, ethical and transparent conduct is vital to our success and reputation. Every employee plays an essential part in complying with local and national laws, rules and regulations. Implementation of robust operating systems and processes that protect the security of the company, its employees, information and intellectual property.

Third-party management

Verifying that our supply chain complies with legal, ethical and social requirements, while also finding opportunities for environmental improvement and economic efficiency.

Our Governance Structure

A clear and effective governance structure has been established to oversee, monitor and report on our activities. Our Legal Compliance team comprises highly experienced experts who advise on a wide range of issues, from anticorruption measures to export controls and trade sanctions. External advisors provide additional support on specific issues when required.

Every quarter our Nominating, Corporate Governance and Sustainability Committee (NCGSC), a sub-committee of the Innospec Board, meets with the Legal Compliance team to review our compliance program and performance. Key compliance issues are also shared and discussed with our Compliance Steering Group (CSG) at their quarterly meetings. This group is comprised of key business leaders across our organization. This enables NCGC feedback to be promptly fed back into the business, legal compliance matters to be discussed and improvements implemented.

Policies and Procedures

All our compliance policies and procedures are formally reviewed every two years and updated where applicable. Interim reviews also take place as and when the need arises. This ensures our compliance program is efficient and continues to support our corporate governance needs.
