Strategic positioning
Sustainability is intrinsic to the operations of SIMPAR, and it takes into account in the management and business of the subsidiaries the creation of value in the environmental, social and economic spheres. One of the company’s values is growth with sustainability, looking after its own resources and those of its stakeholders, and it believes that, bearing in mind the possibilities for generating positive impacts, the companies must support the transformations that society needs for a prosperous future, with less inequality, and environmental equilibrium.

Definition of Action Plans
SIMPAR’s risk management methodology has been systematized in its own policy that establishes the principles, guidelines and responsibilities to be respected in the corporate risk management process, to enable proper identification, evaluation, treatment, monitoring and communication of the risks for which protection is sought and which could affect the strategic plan. The objective is to manage the appetite for taking risk within the decision-making process, seeking to deliver what was planned, in addition to the creation, preservation and growth of value.
