  • Adopt and regularly update policies and procedures across all business units to manage conflicts of interest, subject to ongoing monitoring and reviews.
  • Establish both physical and digital barriers to information flow to prevent the unauthorized exchange or misuse of confidential, non-public information.
  • In cases where dual functions within Nealthy could lead to conflicts of interest, either separate these functions into distinct business units or assign them to different senior management personnel.
  • Align compensation structures, including pay and bonuses, with the performance of Nealthy or specific departments, ensuring that this alignment does not create conflicts of interest.
