CORPORATE RESPONSIBILITY REPORT

2 AVENIR GLOBAL Corporate Responsibility Report 3
At AVENIR GLOBAL, corporate responsibility is
part of our DNA. As for every project we are involved
in, we strive to go above and beyond. Our Corporate
Responsibility Policy is a core component of our
culture and guides us in how we conduct business.
GOING FURTHER
We continuously search for ways to go further, to push our limits, both in
terms of business—in 2019, the acquisition of Hanover, our sixth in five years,
allowed us to expand into new markets such as the Middle East—and in terms of
our corporate behaviour.
In 2019, we pushed our commitment to integrity and professional conduct
further by launching a Firm-wide Code of Conduct, which serves as the
foundation for the Firm’s policies and procedures. 2019 also marked the first
year of The Institute 301, the third level of our in-house, Firm-wide learning
program. We welcomed a cohort of 12 senior leaders from across multiple
brands and markets for a year-long program with the goal of strengthening their
understanding and vision of the Firm, the business of the business, and the key
role they play as leaders of a broader network.
Our people work tirelessly to help their clients succeed and work just as hard for
their communities. We greatly value and encourage our people’s commitment to
local organizations supporting a wide range of causes, from hunger relief, youth
and the elderly, to diversity and culture. And we are proud to continue our efforts
of making our business practices more sustainable by recycling, composting and
reducing our use of all types of consumables.
These commitments are part of who we are. We don’t settle for “just enough”—
we go further because we care. Through a series of actions—big and small—
directed toward a common goal, we create a force that drives change.

Our Corporate Responsibility Policy
focuses on four key areas where we
believe we can have the most impact:
ethical conduct, social investment,
environmental performance and
human capital development.
Each is supported by operational
guidelines and, where appropriate,
annual performance metrics.
