The ethics, transparency, and corporate governance are essential pillars for any company seeking sustainable growth. This premise is the foundation of Asia Shipping’s Integrity Program, the largest logistics integrator in Latin America, which for the second consecutive year publishes its Integrity Report, highlighting the main annual compliance and governance practices and achievements to ensure increasingly safe and responsible operations. The company presents, among the results of this edition, the achievement of the Clean Company Certification, with adherence to the Corporate Pact for Integrity and Against Corruption (and seal granted by the Ethos Institute), and to the Brazil Pact for Corporate Integrity, which aligns the company with the best practices of the CGU – Comptroller General of the Union, reinforcing its public commitment to business ethics and transparency.
Integrity Metrics
Demonstrating its commitment to integrity, through this survey, Asia Shipping proved a compliance rate of 93% in one of the main ethical best practice indicators – reinforcing its performance aligned with corporate responsibility – and the handling of 1,483 requests through the compliance Helpdesk channel. Throughout 2024, a total of 978 documents were analyzed to ensure compliance and a mitigation rate of 77.36% was the risk mitigation rate, demonstrating a significant performance in identifying and resolving potential threats to integrity and organizational compliance.
“The compliance demonstrated through the main ethical guidelines provided by CGU in terms of integrity reflects the commitment to the implementation and continuous monitoring of the company’s initiatives. Regulatory compliance not only strengthens stakeholders’ confidence but also ensures that the organization operates ethically and in line with market best practices, promoting a more transparent and secure business environment,” says Alexandro Ferreira, Compliance Manager at Asia Shipping.
For Alexandre Pimenta, CEO of Asia Shipping, the company’s Code of Ethics, combined with compliance policies, reinforces the organization’s commitment to fair and transparent practices. “Through our Ethics Channel, for example, we ensure a safe space for employees and partners to report any situation that goes against our principles, with the assurance that each case will be handled with seriousness and impartiality,” he says.
The journey of integrity is not just a company commitment but a reflection of the daily work of each employee. “The success of our Integrity Program is the result of the dedication of everyone who is part of Asia Shipping,” comments the CEO.
If the year 2024 was marked by important achievements, such as risk mitigation, efficient compliance handling, and compliance with regulatory requirements, for 2025, Asia Shipping’s goal is to advance in more training to reinforce the culture of integrity, strengthen communication and compliance channels, and continuously monitor best practices and regulations.
