This stands for International Standard on Assurance Engagements number 3402, a guideline for the certification of internal control of processes in service organisations. It describes management objectives and control measures. The statement also covers relevant IT processes, systems and applications. An external auditor is appointed to assess whether controls within the scope of ISAE 3402 are effective.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Regulators<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>IBS Asset Management BV has been issued with an investment firm licence from the AFM (the Netherlands Authority for the Financial Markets). IBS Asset Management BV\u2019s equity capital is more than sufficient to continuously meet the capital requirements of DNB (the central bank of the Netherlands). IBS\u2019 other companies also have adequate capital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Most of IBS\u2019 employees are DSI- and VBA-certified. The employees affiliated with the VBA (the Association for Investment Professionals) and\/or the Dutch Security Institute (DSI) are bound by the respective Codes of Conduct. All our employees are subject to an internal insider regulation that includes rules on private investments and conflicts of interest. All employees have also committed to a Banker&#8217;s Oath in which they have declared that they will perform their duties with integrity and care.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are affiliated with Kifid (the Dutch Institute for Financial Disputes) and accept the judgements of the Dutch Foundation for Consumer Complaints Boards (De Geschillencommissie) as legally binding.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>IBS Fund Management BV holds an AIFMD licence from the AFM in accordance with Section 2:65 of the Dutch Financial Supervision Act. All the investment companies managed by IBS Fund Management BV are registered with the AFM.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Financial Statements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The Annual Report is prepared in accordance with the accounting principles generally accepted in the Netherlands (\u2018Dutch GAAP\u2019). The annual accounts are filed with the Dutch Chamber of Commerce, where the documents are available to everyone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">No proprietary trading&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>IBS Asset Management BV does not have its own trading portfolio and does not take positions itself for trading reasons. IBS Asset Management BV only trades on its clients\u2019 behalf and risk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Remuneration Policy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>We apply a controlled remuneration policy that complies with the Dutch Remuneration Policy (Financial Enterprises) Act. There is no relationship between the returns achieved, the risk taken and the amount of variable remuneration. Variable remunerations are bound to a statutory maximum.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also take sustainability and the associated risks into account. These sustainability risks relate to IBS itself, our employees, investment policy and customers. The degree to which these sustainability risks are controlled, affects part of the variable remuneration of employees and aims to create a positive effect on the management of sustainability risks. This variable remuneration fits within the framework of the Financial Enterprises Remuneration Policy Act.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Privacy<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our services are based on trust.
