In the execution of our work the guiding principles we embrace are transparency, efficiency, accountability and respect for the stakeholders' concerns. Our Core values are:

 

• Commitment to Development. We strive for excellence, but ultimately our efforts have to yield positive results which are beneficial for the people and their environment in the countries where we work. This means improved livelihoods and employment of environmentally sound and sustainable practices.
• ​Commitment to Sustainability. We are committed to sustainable development, fully acknowledging and accepting Corporate Social Responsibility. Our business principles are based on the triple bottom line – economic, environmental, and social performance, as expressed by the three P’s: People, Planet & Profit.
• ​Commitment to Excellence. Within our working environment we actively encourage a culture of value-adding and continuous improvement. We aim at becoming the leader in our field by providing accurate and relevant information to guide optimal decisions with regard to business development in the agricultural and bio-energy sectors in the countries where we operate.
• Rigor of Analysis. We will not willingly produce results that are based on unprofessional analysis; instead we will strive for the application of the most rigorous analytical tools available.
• Independence of Opinion. We will not produce results that are based on pressure from clients or other parties, if we believe that those results are wrong and inconsistent with our analysis.
• ​Strong Ethical Standards. We place the greatest importance on operating with honesty and integrity. We will not make compromises when faced with decisions involving corruption, unfairness or adverse affects on equal rights.
• Dedication and Hard Work. All of our staff is dedicated and consists of hard-working individuals. Our hard work made possible the achievements of the past and will make possible the achievements of the future.
• Team Work. We have worked as a team in the past and we will learn to work even more effectively as a team in the future. We highly value the expertise and professionalism of our staff and personnel in the field and care about their welfare. We offer our staff a working environment which encourages and supports initiative, innovation and both personal and professional growth.
• Respect. For the people with whom we work: for each other, for our clients, and for the beneficiaries of our work. For the environment in which we work: for nature and society. We embrace and respect the cultural and social diversity of the countries in which we work.
