Institutions

Group companies maintain relationships with local, national and supranational authorities in a spirit of full and active cooperation and transparency that does not compromise their independence, economic targets or the values enshrined in this Code (Article 5 of the Ethical Code ).

The dialogue on which relations with Institutions and Public Administrations are based is conducted believing that business and relational ethics must be pursued along with the Company's success. 

Active co-operation and transparent dialogue with Institutions, together with the firm respect of the different existing cultures also allows a full and sustainable integration with the local communities where the Group operates.
