Regulation

Headquartered in Dubai

The company operates from Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai, under the laws of the Emirate of Dubai and the United Arab Emirates.

Our trading registration details are available to counterparties on request as part of the due diligence file we exchange before the first transaction.

Compliance

How we manage compliance

Counterparty due diligence

Before entering a relationship we establish the identity, ownership and standing of the counterparty and the origin of the cargo and of the funds involved. We review this information periodically.

Sanctions

We screen counterparties, vessels and cargoes against the sanctions that apply to our business. We do not trade with sanctioned parties or in cargoes of sanctioned origin.

Anti bribery and corruption

We do not offer, give or accept bribes, facilitation payments or improper advantages, directly or through others.

Anti money laundering

Payments are made through regulated banks and correspond to documented transactions. We do not accept cash or payments from unrelated third parties.

Records

We keep complete records of each transaction, including contracts, shipping documents, inspection certificates and payment records.

Confidentiality

Commercial information received from counterparties is used only for the transaction concerned.

Raising a concern

If you have a concern about the conduct of the company or anyone acting on its behalf, please contact us. Concerns are reviewed by management and handled in confidence.
