CIM is determined to lead the relocation industry by taking a clear stand against bribery and corruption in compliance with FIDI’s requirement. By doing so, CIM will protect the best interests of the industry, and its customers.

What Is Bribery?

Bribery is the offering, promising, giving, accepting, or soliciting of an advantage as an inducement for action. It is illegal, and it is a breach of trust.

A bribe is an inducement or reward offered, promised, or provided to gain a commercial, contractual, regulatory, or personal advantage.

CIM Will Not Tolerate Bribery

Corruption, bribery, or attempted bribery is unacceptable. This applies whether offering a bribe or accepting a bribe. It is against CIM’s core values of conducting business to the highest legal, moral, and ethical standards.

CIM commits to legal and ethical behavior, and to refrain from doing anything that will harm the interests of CIM, clients, or the industry. CIM will take steps to ensure it is fully informed of applicable regulations and will monitor its employees and business partners and suppliers to ensure full and continual compliance.

Legal Compliance

 CIM will ensure that it is aware of all applicable laws countering bribery and corruption in all the jurisdictions in which it operates, and that it will obey and uphold those laws.

Ethical Behavior
