Policy on Managing Conflicts of Interest SUTD employees and members of the SUTD Board of Trustees and its subcommittees are required to act in the best interest of the University at all times. They have the obligation to avoid ethical, legal, financial or other conflicts of interest to ensure that their activities do not conflict with their obligations to the University or its welfare. Clear policies and procedures have been established with measures to be taken to declare, prevent and address conflict of interest. Procedures are put in place for SUTD employees and members of the Board of Trustees and its subcommittees to disclose to SUTD the details of any situation where they may find themselves in a position of potential or actual conflict. Policy on Whistle-blowing A culture of good governance, integrity, responsibility and accountability is important to SUTD. The SUTD Whistleblowing Policy provides a formalised, secure and confidential avenue for both employees and external parties to raise concerns about actual or suspected improprieties on the part of Management or fellow employees and in so doing deter wrongdoing and promote standards of ethical behaviour and integrity in the work environment and in our dealings with external parties. The policy can be found on SUTD’s website. Reserve Policy In general, the use of reserves is subject to the approval of the Board of Trustees except for funds which are governed by terms and conditions. Any need to draw down from funds which require the Trustees’ approval should be justified in the plan for the new financial year. Where the need to draw down is due to unforeseen circumstances beyond Management’s ability to cope by expenses reduction or use of other available funds, proper justification to the Trustee must be provided and approval obtained. p. 54 SINGAPORE UNIVERSITY OF TECHNOLOGY AND DESIGN
