KUKE Group Code of Ethics

  1. Every day, we are all guided by the value system that we took from home and that we naturally try to pass on to our children. We believe that we help shape their personality or regulate the rules of functioning in society, setting the directions of development.

OECD Consensus

The Arrangement on Officially Supported Export Credits (OECD Consensus) lays down the terms and conditions of financing export transactions provided by OECD Member States with loans allocated a repayment period of 2 or more years. The main objective of the Arrangement is ensuring equal conditions of competition between exporters based on the quality and price of the exported goods and services and not on any more favourable conditions of assistance provided by national governments.

Environmental protection

Following the adoption by the OECD Council on 28 June 2012 of the Recommendation of the Council on Common Approaches for Officially Supported Export Credits and Environmental and Social Due Diligence KUKE established a procedural framework that allows addressing the potential impact of investment projects financed with a credit with a repayment term of 2 years and more supported with the State Treasury backing upon the natural and social environment. A responsible approach to the environment while carrying out export undertakings is an important element of KUKE’s co-operation with Polish exporters, institutions financing Polish exports, as well as ministries and public institutions.
