We are Committed to Remaining an OCI-Free Partner

Integrity is one of Torch’s core values and a cornerstone of every business decision at our company. We recognize that Organizational Conflicts of Interest (OCI) are a significant concern for our customers, therefore we are committed to remaining an OCI-free and impartial partner. We demonstrated this commitment in 2009 by fully divesting of a subsidiary in order to avoid the possibility of impaired objectivity. We maintain documented OCI review procedures and have established an OCI review officer to ensure we are perpetually evaluating and mitigating any risks.
