Environmental

We have a long-term vision for sustainable development and continuous improvement of our environmental performance by maintaining best practice throughout our operations. The Board has overall responsibility for environmental impacts and has delegated the monitoring of our progress to its Nomination & Governance Committee. The heads of each business are responsible for compliance of environmental policy and processes within their respective operations, with Global Business Services providing guidance together with logistical support. We have retained Ecofiniti Ltd as a professional adviser on environmental matters for the Group.

Social 

Charles Taylor works exclusively within the insurance market and has a highly-valued reputation. We acknowledge that reputations are made on how one acts; not just what one says, but what one does and how one does it. Our Core Values set out what can be expected  from us and these underpin everything that we do. The values and desired behaviours ensure that we maintain our good name, brand and reputation at every interaction with our stakeholders and with those who come into contact with Charles Taylor.

Governance

Charles Taylor has formal policies on conflicts of interest, gifts and hospitality, anti-corruption and sanctions. These are communicated to staff on joining and, where necessary, annual refresher training is provided. All policies are available to staff on our intranet, Compass. Processes are in place to ensure compliance and that training is undertaken and recorded. Individual Global Business Services teams (such as Property, Legal, HR, Risk and Compliance) are responsible for the day-to-day maintenance of our standards and review our policies at least annually. Our Internal Audit team reviews any possible non-compliance of material areas.
