Code of Business Conduct and Ethics

We have established a Code of Business Conduct and Ethics to ensure that our supervisory board members, management board members and employees are making ethical and legal decisions when conducting Galapagos’ business and performing their day-to-day duties. We expect our supervisory board members, management board members and employees to conduct business with integrity, ethics and respect for human rights. We expect them to turn away from conflicts of interest, corruption and fraud. To this end, we give trainings on this Code to our employees, including our subsidiaries’ employees. So far, 93.5% of our employees from Galapagos R&D have completed the training.

The Code of Business Conduct and Ethics is available at https://www.glpg.com/governance-information.

One breach of our Code of Business Conduct and Ethics was reported to the audit committee in 2020.
