Codes & Policies

The Model code for Securities Transactions sets a required standard against which directors must measure their conduct regarding transactions in securities of their listed issuers.

As a principle, TTI encourages the holding of the securities of Techtronic Industries Co. Ltd. (the "Company") by employees as long-term investments, although discourages short-term speculative dealings. However, in order to protect both individual members of staff and TTI from any potential breaches of the varied and complex legislation which now exists in Hong Kong when dealing in the Company's securities, the rules set out below (the "Rules") have been adopted.

The TTI Policy on Market Disclosure, Investor and Media Relations ("Policy") is designed to ensure that there is balanced and timely disclosure of information which may affect the market activity in, and the price of, TTI's securities or influence investment decisions and information in which shareholders, investors and the market generally have a legitimate interest.

The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is responsible for the appointment, compensation and oversight of the work of the independent auditor. As part of this responsibility, the Audit Committee is required to pre-approve the audit and non-audit services performed by the independent auditor in order to assure that they do not impair the auditor's independence from the Corporation.

As specified in TTI's Code of Conduct, we are committed to conducting business ethically and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations. We encourage any person to report to us any action, situation or circumstance that appears to be in violation of the Code of Conduct or of any laws, regulations or our other internal policies (including internal policies and codes of conduct of TTI subsidiary companies). Therefore, this policy has been established to provide a mechanism for the reporting of such concerns anonymously if desired without fear of retaliation.
