“… has helped us to implement the necessary elements of a value-oriented compliance management system in a structured way with the help of the auditing standard specially developed for the real estate industry.”<\/strong><\/p>\n A reliable compliance management system based on recognised standards is indispensable for every professional service provider.\u00a0With the ICG certification, we as a public real estate company are in a position to meet the requirements of both the legislator and the Free and Hanseatic City of Hamburg. Our task in the future will be to further strengthen awareness of compliance with our new Code of Conduct in the sense of a lived compliance culture. Above all, the workshops held with our managers and employees in the course of certification have shown us that the open exchange produces very valuable insights for our compliance work.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_testimonial author=”ANDREAS ENGELHARDT” job_title=”Chairman of the Board” company_name=”GWG Gesellschaft f\u00fcr Wohnungs- und Gewerbebau Baden-W\u00fcrttemberg AG ” portrait_url=”https:\/\/icg-institut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/01\/Andreas-Engelhardt.jpg-1.png” quote_icon=”off” _builder_version=”4.4.4″]<\/p>\n \u201c\u2026helped us to consolidate the relevant internal processes, to analyse the weak spots and define a pathway for further development.

This makes it all the more important that property companies establish a value management process in their everyday business activities, which identifies conflicts of interest and negotiation grey areas and promotes a culture of integrity among employees in their everyday situations. Regular certification demonstrates the current status of our engagement. On this basis, we can constantly develop our compliance management.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_testimonial author=”STEFANIE FRENSCH” job_title=”former Managing Director” company_name=”HOWOGE Wohnungsbaugesellschaft mbH” portrait_url=”http:\/\/icg-institut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/Stefanie-Frensch_300x400.jpg” quote_icon=”off” portrait_width=”90px” _builder_version=”4.4.4″]<\/p>\n \u201c\u2026it is an important component to build trust in the company.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n Compliance management certification by the ICG is an important component for HOWOGE, helping to build trust in the company among our tenants, business partners and the general public, but it is also a part of the corporate culture as experienced on a daily basis. The interdisciplinary workshop process implemented throughout the company within the scope of the certification process has improved awareness among our employees in relation to corporate values, standards and the corresponding conduct benchmarks. At the end of the day, the specific employee interactions with regard to the basic ICG values of integrity, transparency, confidentiality and professionalism fostered the further development of the HOWOGE corporate mission statement. This update of the company\u2019s principles and values significantly strengthens our continued corporate success and minimises risks.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_testimonial author=”ROBERT HEINEMANN” job_title=”Managing Director Human Resources & Corporate Services” company_name=”ECE Projektmanagement G.m.b.H. & Co.KG ” portrait_url=”http:\/\/icg-institut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Robert-Heinemann-e1596699522963.jpg” quote_icon=”off” _builder_version=”4.4.4″]<\/p>\n \u201c\u2026meets the increasing demands of investors for compliance among their business partners.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n An essential element of the ECE\u2019s value system is the concept of \u201cintegrity\u201d. The certification of our compliance management system by ICG, along with the ongoing re-certifications, help us to meet our own expectations associated with this process and to meet the increasing demands of our international investors for compliance among their business partners, and it forms an important element of our corporate risk management.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_testimonial author=”R\u00dcDIGER KAHDE” job_title=”Managing Director” company_name=”Allianz Handwerker Services GmbH (AHS)” portrait_url=”http:\/\/icg-institut.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/08\/Ru\u0308diger-KahdecAllianz-Partners.jpg” quote_icon=”off” _builder_version=”4.4.4″]<\/p>\n \u2026 can also actively minimise liability risks for our customers and create reputational benefits.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n ICG certification gives our customers the assurance that liability risks in the business activities of their service providers are minimised on the one hand, while on the other hand, it offers a relevant reputational advantage in their interactions vis-a-vis their clients. Yet compliance also provides a competitive advantage with regard to anti-corruption concerns and transparency remains at the top of the list. Only companies with a certified compliance management system provide their business partners, investors, employees and shareholders with a degree of certainty that the company itself takes rules-based compliance and anti-corruption seriously. We know that corruption ultimately leads to more expensive products and that customers are impacted by inflated prices.<\/p>\n Since May 2020 we are the first construction company in the insurance and real estate industry which is compliance-certified and the first general contractor in the real estate industry to be ICG-certified too. We are proud to have received the ICG seal from the very beginning. It underpins the fact that we have managed a balancing act of working within the solution-oriented framework of the construction industry, while meeting the risk-averse demands of our customers.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_testimonial][et_pb_testimonial author=”DR.

The perception of being a reliable and responsible company that always aligns its negotiations and business models on the principle of integrity, contributes increasingly to today\u2019s economic success and creates acceptance among our investors and customers.\u00a0Since 2002, ICG has achieved outstanding results in the key areas of governance, business ethics and compliance. We are therefore proud to have received ICG certifications since 2017\u00a0for the implementation of our values management system in conjunction with the \u201clist of specifications for compliance management in the real estate industry\u201d\u00a0. One requirement for this was the establishment of a system which governs the business interactions with suppliers, customers and the employees of Commerz Real.

Reliable compliance and risk management processes based on national and international standards are essential today. The JLL management team has made a commitment, without compromise, to sustainable, values-based and responsible corporate management. We thereby protect our customers and employees from unfounded suspicions and create a professional, trustworthy and reputable working atmosphere. From our perspective, being part of a certification system as offered by ICG provides a competitive corporate advantage which also plays a role in attracting new talent and motivating our existing employees.
