Decile Group promotes and adheres to the Mensarius Oath (https://decilegroup.com/mensarius-oath/). In general, the principles of the Oath are enforced by the community. When a member of the community feels that the Oath has been violated, then it is up to the individual or entity in question to either dispute the accusation or reconcile the breach. So far, the community has done an excellent job of self policing, and, when there has been an incident, the individual or entity in question has been removed from the community until the breach has been reconciled.

Fairness:
I endeavor to be fair in my dealings, standing against abuse of power, unfair advantage, seduction, corruption, or mistreatment.

Equality:
I pledge to promote inclusivity and equitable treatment in all financial endeavors, consciously working to reduce inequality.

Respect:
I promise to treat individuals and opportunities with the respect and the attention deserved in business interactions.

Transparency:
I affirm to be transparent and honest in dealings with investors, founders, and colleagues.

Confidentiality:
I swear to safeguard private, confidential, or personal information, keeping it safe from public or other unwanted disclosure.

Growth:
I am resolved to embrace feedback from clients and peers, committing to ongoing personal and professional growth.
