Genworth is committed to being actively involved in the communities we serve. This commitment extends to our approach to public policy. Because public policy issues have the potential to impact our business, employees, partners, customers and communities, Genworth, like other commercial enterprises, uses its resources to promote public policies of concern to our company and educate elected and public officials about our business.

Genworth has a long history of being committed to conducting business ethically, with integrity, and in accordance with the law. Part of that commitment includes compliance with rules, regulations, and standards governing our interaction with all governments, including our disclosure and accountability regarding political contributions and expenditures.

To that end, Genworth recognizes the importance of meaningful corporate governance practices as it relates to corporate political contributions and expenditures. Accordingly, Genworth’s Board of Directors has adopted a policy to ensure that political contributions and expenditures in the United States are made in a manner consistent with Genworth’s core values to protect or enhance stockholder value.
