Expert RA has been using an approved Code of Professional Ethics since 2019.
The Code of Professional Ethics sets out Expert RA’s basic operating principles and rules intended to maintain Expert RA’s objectivity and independence. The Code was developed in keeping with the current laws of the Russian Federation and is based on the best examples of international CRA practice and the most relevant IOSCO Code of Conduct Fundamentals for CRAs.
The Internal Control and Risk Analysis Service is a business unit responsible for ensuring that Expert RA and its employees act in accordance with the Code of Professional Ethics, the applicable laws and regulations and for receiving and processing reports of violation.
All the staff are familiar with the Code of Professional Ethics, comply with professional ethical standards and internal procedures aimed at ensuring the quality and integrity of the rating process.
Pursuant to the Federal Law
