As a result, each of us must take personal responsibility for conducting all of our business endeavors with honesty, candor, sincerity, and fairness, consistent with RGA's core values in support of protecting and enhancing RGA's reputation. RGA adheres to the highest ethical standards in all of its business dealings. This requires that the Company's business be conducted in accordance with all applicable laws and regulations and with the highest standards of business ethics. RGA as a global company must be sensitive to the cultures and customs of the countries where it operates and respect the communities and environments where it does business. The success of the Company's business depends on the reputation of the Company and its Workforce Members for integrity and ethical business conduct. Improper activities could harm the Company's reputation for integrity or otherwise result in adverse consequences.
Speaking up or Whistleblowing is making others aware that you believe the company, its management, or its employees are acting improperly in respect of the laws or regulations in the countries in which RGA operates.

RGA will also provide feedback, and actions taken or envisaged to be taken to the reporting person within three months of receiving the report.
