Operis prides itself on its collaborative approach that thrives on a diverse and inclusive environment. The firm is fully committed to fostering a culture of inclusion where everyone is valued and respected, regardless of any type of disability, and creating an accessible environment, both digitally and physically.

As part of our commitment to diversity and inclusion, Operis is proud to be a signatory of the Women in Finance Charter. Created by HM Treasury the Charter is a pledge to work together to build a more balanced and fair financial industry in the UK.

The Environment

Operis recognises that in pursuing its commercial interests it also has a responsibility, where appropriate and relevant, towards the wider environment. By exercising proper control over its activities, Operis will, where practical, promote the use of sustainable resources and discourage wasteful or damaging practices.

Modern Slavery Act

Operis is committed to ensuring that the way in which we conduct our business and dealings with our suppliers reflects our values, our respect for human rights and our belief that everyone should be treated with dignity. We are committed to showing that our practices combat modern slavery and human trafficking, and to working with and encouraging our suppliers as they uphold the principles in this statement.

Anti-Money Laundering

Operis takes money laundering seriously and have put comprehensive policies and procedures in place to prevent and detect it in line with the Money Laundering Regulations of 2007 and the Proceeds of Crime Act 2002. In doing so, Operis require identification of an officer or director of a customer company, which will be retained within the firm’s Know Your Customer (KYC) register.

Bribery & Gifts

It is the policy of Operis to conduct business in an honest way, and without the use of corrupt practices or acts of bribery to obtain an unfair advantage, in line with the UK Bribery Act 2010.
