PRINCIPLES OF GOOD LOBBYING

As a public affairs consultancy that provides professional services to assist our clients in having their voices heard, we have chosen not only to follow the ethical guidelines set out for the industry, including "the Stockholm charter" outlining professional Code of Conduct principles and the nine principles of good lobbying developed by the Danish Industry and the Public Relations Industry.

We have actively chosen to participate in the work and development of best practices and codes of conduct for the industry. We believe that the best way to do this is to consider the principles and definitions to which our work should adhere.

This has resulted in the following eight principles:

1. Economic independence

Under no circumstances are economic incentives used toward decision-makers with whom we engage in dialogue. Similarly, Azilis is neither can nor will be purely commission-based at any time.

1. Objective advice

Advice will always be based on common knowledge of the subject in question and will not exclude any potential criticisms - a subject must be able to stand on its own argumentatively to be considered.

1. Freedom of speech and a free society

We do not discriminate against potential clients based on religion, disability, sexual orientation, or similar. We take on cases we can stand behind.

1. Integrity

The quality of applied information is subject to high screening criteria, and we only use primary sources.

1. Confidentiality and Contract Compliance

Every collaboration is based on a contractual cooperation agreement. Every client collaboration is subject to full confidentiality.

1. Loyalty

No conflicting cases, and if we have the opportunity to take on a case that potentially conflicts with another case, this is discussed with the client.

1. Wholeheartedness

We reserve the right to decline cases that we cannot stand behind.

1. Best business practices

Followed within our respective areas of expertise.
