Aareon AG is a seventy percent subsidiary of Aareal Bank Group, Wiesbaden.
Aareal Bank Group's reputation is based on the fact that the conduct of each individual employee meets high ethical standards.
The Management Board of Aareal Bank has therefore adopted a Code of Conduct which forms the basis of Aareal Bank Group's business conduct.

The Management Board of Aareon AG has committed itself to this Code of Conduct in order to protect the integrity of Aareon AG, its business partners, customers and employees.
2. Code of Conduct for suppliers
Aareal Bank Group has imposed strict ethical rules on itself, which guide it in all its business. It has the same demands on its suppliers of products and services as it does on itself. When selecting suppliers, they evaluate not only economic performance but also ecological, social and ethical sustainability.
The Code of Conduct for Suppliers sets the standard for these business relationships in terms of responsibility for people and the environment. It is based on the principles of the United Nations Global Compact (UN Global Compact) and the principles of the International Labour Organization (ILO).
