CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS
Introduction
This Code of Business Conduct and Ethics covers a wide range of business practices and procedures. It does not cover every issue that may arise, but it sets out basic principles to guide all employees of DiamondCluster International. All of our employees must conduct themselves accordingly and seek to avoid even the appearance of improper behavior. The Code should also be provided to and followed by the firms agents and representatives, including directors and outside consultants. All references to employees in This Code of Business Conduct and Ethics includes all employees, partners and officers of the firm.
If a law conflicts with a policy in this Code, you must comply with the law; however, if a local custom or policy conflicts with this Code, you must comply with the Code. If you have any questions about these conflicts, you should contact the firms Chief People Officer or its General Counsel. Those who violate the standards in this Code will be subject to disciplinary action which may include dismissal from the firm. If you are in a situation which you believe may violate or lead to a violation of this Code, follow the guidelines described in Section 14 of this Code.
1. Compliance with Laws, Rules and Regulations
Obeying the law, both in letter and in spirit, is the foundation on which DiamondClusters ethical standards are built. All employees must respect and obey the laws of the cities, states and countries in which we operate. Although not all employees are expected to know the details of these laws, it is important to know enough to determine when to seek advice from supervisors, managers or other appropriate personnel.
DiamondCluster provides all necessary information to you to promote compliance with laws, rules and regulations, including insider-trading laws.
2. Conflicts of Interest
A conflict of interest exists when a persons private interest interferes in any way with the interests of the firm. A conflict situation can arise when an employee, officer or director takes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her Company work objectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise when an employee or director, or members of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or her position in the firm. Loans to, or guarantees of obligations of, employees and their family members may create conflicts of interest.
It is almost always a conflict of interest for a DiamondCluster employee to work (other than in his or her capacity as a DiamondCluster employee) simultaneously for a competitor, client or supplier. You are not allowed to work for a competitor as a consultant or board member. The best policy is to avoid any direct or indirect outside business connection with our clients, suppliers or competitors, except on our behalf in the normal course of business.
Conflicts of interest are prohibited as a matter of firm policy. Conflicts of interest may not always be clear-cut, so if you have a question, you should consult with DiamondClusters Chief People Officer or General Counsel. Any employee or director who becomes aware of a conflict or potential
