Risk culture

See it. Report it. Sort it.

Increasing the risk awareness across the business and driving an accountable risk culture

As a leading life insurance company, TAL operates in an increasingly complex business and regulatory environment. A strong risk culture is what underpins our license to operate as a business and supports TAL’s long-term sustainability.

We have important obligations for our customers, partners, regulators and the community, as well as each other, and it’s important that everyone at TAL understands their role in ensuring they manage risk effectively. We continue to strive to better understand, measure and act to support a strong and healthy risk culture at TAL.

Code of Conduct

TAL’s Code of Conduct and associated training also set out expectations for how we act, solve problems and make decisions. These are important principles and commitments we make when we interact with colleagues, customers, partners, stakeholders, regulators and the community.

Duncan Boyle

TAL Board Chairman

Corporate culture has never been more important and front of mind for the Board. The Code of Conduct plays a critical role in creating an atmosphere of integrity, trust and mutual respect that supports our Purpose, Ambition and Spirit.

See it. Report it. Sort it.

TAL’s ‘See it. Report it. Sort it.’ framework provides employees with a clear pathway to identify any risks they see within the business, guidance on reporting the risks and how they can manage the risk raised. This initiative has helped to increase risk awareness across the business and drive a risk culture that is accountable and proactive across all employees and the broader business.
