About the Code of Conduct

In December 2023, an industry-led working group launched a voluntary code of conduct based on recommendations published by the International Organization of Securities Commissions (IOSCO). The Code of Conduct focuses on promoting transparency, good governance, management of conflicts of interest, and robust systems and controls. It is intended to be internationally interoperable and could be used by jurisdictions where no local code or regulation is in place.
