A key pillar of the Celanese approach is integrity and transparency in financial reporting. All internal controls undergo a thorough and rigorous review to ensure that financial information accurately and fairly presents Celanese's financial condition.

The Celanese Global Business Conduct Policy applies to all directors, officers and employees, and prescribes expectations on a wide range of topics relevant to our business conduct including conflicts of interest, insider trading and antitrust. Additionally, the company's chief executive officer, chief financial officer, and controller are held to an additional level of expectation as defined in a Financial Code of Ethics. This code holds these officers responsible for full, fair, accurate, timely and understandable disclosure in the company's periodic reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission.

The Global Business Conduct policy of Celanese also commits that we design and operate our facilities throughout the world to provide our employees with safe workplaces. Everyone at Celanese must adhere to the Global Business Conduct policy, no matter where we do business.
