Legal compliance

We also protect the legitimate rights and interests of the whistleblower.
Under the framework of the Code of Ethics, VisEra has established regulations or guidelines for different areas of compliance, including: Ethical Corporate Management Best Practice Principles, Anti-Corruption, Anti-Bribery, Anti-Harassment, Anti-Discrimination, Export Control, Insider Trading, Personal Data Protection, Information Security, Responsible Business Alliance Code of Conduct (RBA), etc. These specific regulations are essential to the implementation of VisEra's Code of Ethics. The above specific regulations are essential to the implementation of the ethical regulations of the company. In 2024, a total of 1,552 employees (100% completion rate) have completed this educational training program.
In May 2024, after the re-election of the Board of Directors, VisEra held a training session on insider trading prevention for the newly appointed directors. “The 2024 Compliance Brochure of Listed Company Insider Stock Trading Q&A” was simultaneously provided to the directors for reference. In October 2024, VisEra noted our executives for common reporting violations of insider shareholding change under the Securities and Exchange Act.
To comply with the regulations on insider trading, VisEra holds training sessions at least once a year. In July 2024, a training session, “Propaganda of Insider Trading Prevention,” was held for all employees, lasting 2 hours, with a 100% completion rate. The session covered the following topics: the definition of insider trading, its scope of application, the parties subject to the regulations, and legal liabilities. The session emphasized case studies and highlighted the differences between VisEra’s and the authority’s regulations. All references were accessible in VisEra’s internal system. Moreover, considering the Department of Finance and Accounting frequently handles sensitive and material information, a session “Propaganda of Precautions under Insider Trading Regulations” was held in October 2024 to strengthen their awareness of compliance and prevent accidental violations.
VisEra also regularly notifies the Board of Directors of the scheduled meeting dates and the closed periods for financial report announcements to avoid any inadvertent violations of the regulations.
