Governance

We prioritise effective corporate governance practices and work consistently to build a transparent work environment at all levels of our organisation. The tone for this is set at the top. Our one-tier board, comprised of Executive and Non-Executive Directors, oversees the company’s operations, ensures compliance, and upholds the interests of our stakeholders. The Non-Executive Directors supervise the performance of duties of the Executive Directors and the general affairs and business of CTP, help develop proposals on strategy and supervise implementation of the strategy. We adhere diligently to applicable laws and regulations and have established Board-level committees that ensure responsible, fair and transparent decision-making in the Audit, Nomination and Remuneration, Sustainability Committees and in the Board. Our Board of Directors is committed to creating long-term value while considering the impact of our actions throughout the value chain.

Ethical Business Conduct

Integrity is at the core of how we conduct business at CTP. We have established a strong culture of ethical behaviour, transparency, and accountability throughout our organisation. Our flat management structure enables quick decision-making, fostering a dynamic and responsive work environment. We actively manage risks and ensure compliance with all applicable laws, regulations, and industry standards. Our commitment to integrity is reflected in our comprehensive policies, such as our Code of Conduct, Anti-Bribery and Corruption Policy, and Insider Trading Policy. These policies outline our expectations for ethical behaviour and guide our interactions with employees, stakeholders, and business partners. Top management gives its full support to the Group AML compliance officer across the Group.

Inclusion & Equal Opportunities

CTP values diversity, equity, and inclusion as integral components of our organizational culture. We prioritize talent, experience, and attitude in our recruitment process, fostering a diverse and motivated workforce.

Gender equality is a key value for us, and we maintain a gender ratio close to 50:50 below the Board level. At the Board level, we have set a goal of gender representation not falling below 30%.

Our commitment to inclusion and equal opportunities is reflected in our policies, including our Code of Conduct and efforts to create an ethical work environment where all employees are treated with respect and have equal opportunities to thrive and contribute to our success.

Grievance Channels

We value open communication and provide multiple channels for employees to raise concerns or grievances. Our anonymous intranet grievance channel, accessible via email or phone, allows employees to report any issues they may encounter.

We also have a whistleblower policy in place, encouraging employees to first approach their managers but providing an alternative channel if necessary. This channel ensures anonymity and protects whistleblowers. We take all concerns seriously and investigate them promptly, reinforcing our commitment to maintaining a safe and ethical work environment where individuals feel comfortable speaking up.

EU Taxonomy

We understand the significance of the EU Taxonomy in promoting sustainability in the economy. That’s why we are transparent about our eligibility and alignment with the Taxonomy’s requirements. Through an analysis in 2022, we have determined the eligibility of our core business operations, ensuring they align with the Taxonomy’s guidelines. We have adapted our policies and processes to meet the minimum social safeguard requirements and ensure alignment across various criteria. As we continue to develop our properties, we are committed to meeting the technical screening criteria and further increasing our alignment with the EU Taxonomy.
