The Ethics & Standards (E&S) Committee is responsible for upholding the high standards of professional conduct that define our Association. This committee, comprised of senior and independent Charter Holders, administers the Code of Ethics and ensures that all members adhere to the principles of integrity, competence, and judgment. From its inception, our Association has prioritized professional ethics. A code of ethics was among the first documents drafted by the founders to ensure members acted with professionalism. In 2015, the Association adopted the CFA Institute Code and Standards, and the E&S Committee is now the key body that administers these globally recognized principles for our members.

The solemn mission of the Ethics & Standards Committee (E&S) is to uphold the highest standards of professional conduct, integrity, and judgment that define the CMT designation.
