Which statement reflects ethics and integrity in the Principles?

• A. Move speedily and decisively in everything we do.
• B. Conduct business in a very real way based on the current marketplace, products and facts.
• C. Act as global citizens with ethics and integrity.
• D. Do everything possible for our customers.

Answer: (C)

Ethics and integrity mean choosing the right course even when it’s hard, and acting with honesty, fairness, and accountability in every action. The statement about acting as global citizens with ethics and integrity best captures that mindset, because it signals a commitment to ethical conduct across borders and to considering the impact on people, communities, and the environment. It emphasizes upholding high standards and responsible behavior in all situations, not just pursuing speed or market realism or customer service alone. The other ideas describe positive traits, but they don’t explicitly affirm the ethical and globally responsible stance that integrity requires.
