Guidelines

Corporate Governance Guidelines

In 1995, Baxter became one of the first companies to adopt formal corporate governance guidelines. At Baxter, re-examining our practices and setting new standards is an ongoing process. Today's corporate governance guidelines reflect that process.

Code of Conduct

Directly tied to Baxter's approach to values-based decision making is its widely lauded Ethics and Compliance program, which is built around the concept of integrity. Baxter's Code of Conduct is a guide for employees and suppliers, available in multiple languages, to help explain the universal principles governing our business.

Securities Trading Policy

Federal and state securities laws impose important restrictions on "insiders" of companies with respect to their securities transactions. An "insider" of Baxter is any Baxter employee who learns of material, non-public information about Baxter or, in some cases, about other companies.
