5 Section 8 About Kickbacks

6 Trust & Ethics go hand in hand:  How do we inspire trust? How do we maintain it? Through our honesty and ethical behavior. It means that we have to work at being ethical. It means that we should be at the head of the class when it comes to ethics. That's why BANK has a code of ethics. It is why our code of ethics is strong, clear, and specific. It is why when someone comes to work in our bank they understand that they now work in a special place with special responsibilities. They should realize that they are held to a higher standard. Yes, bankers are better than others. We should look at ourselves with pride. Our Code of Ethics is more than a document that outlines our bank’s ethics. It is more than our expected behavior. Our bank’s ethics are reflected in everything - including products and service decisions. A genuinely ethical bank, like BANK, offers products that its customers want and need, not simply the products that are most profitable.
