Evaluators of in-kind shares for investment funds must adhere to key ethical principles including honesty, justice, and confidentiality when collecting data from official authorities. Confidentiality ensures sensitive information obtained during valuation processes is protected against unauthorized disclosure, preserving trust and compliance with legal requirements. This principle complements honesty and justice by maintaining the integrity of the evaluation process and protecting the interests of the fund and its investors. Governance, equality, and prudence are important but not the specifically mandated principles in this context.
