Third party distribution companies and platforms who enter into arrangements to distribute Legg Mason’s proprietary mutual funds or other investment solutions
"The Company is committed to seeking to ensure that there is no slavery or human trafficking in its supply chains or in any part of its business. The Legg Mason Employee Handbook reflects the Company’s commitment to acting ethically and with integrity in all of its business relationships and to implement and enforce effective systems and controls to seek to ensure slavery and human trafficking is not taking place"
"Where possible the Company builds long standing relationships with its third party service providers and suppliersand place obligations on these suppliers to comply with all applicable laws, which, where relevant, would includecompliance with the Act."
"In addition, the Company will take steps to seek to ensure transparency within its own organisation and with suppliers of
goods and services with whom it contracts in relation to the prevention of modern slavery and human trafficking"
Not explicit enough on whether suppliers are required to produce a statement under the MSA. "Honest and open communication with the relevant personnel of our service providers and suppliers to set the
Company’s expectations of their compliance with the Act."
Prohibit forced labour + a bit vague about suppliers complying with laws and policies
"The Company has a zero tolerance approach to slavery and human trafficking. Where relevant, those in its supply chain and contractors are required to comply with these values. Where applicable, contractual provisions will be included in and will be put into agreements, further, where applicable, notices of the Company’s expectations will be sent to certain providers in the Company’s existing supply chain." p.2
