dc.description.abstract	The current study set out to explore the contribution of ethics policy on risk mitigation. The study has revealed that commercial banks in Uganda have risks in areas of credit, liquidity, market, operations, compliance, taxation, and reputations. The results further revealed that ethics policy had a significant relationship with compliance [r (48) = .318, p<0.05]. Similarly, compliance is also significantly related to risk mitigation [r (48) =.437, p<0.01]. There was also a strong relationship between ethics policy and risk mitigation [r (48) =.380, p<0.01]. The causal effect of ethics policy on risk mitigation came out as 51%. In order to have effective risk mitigation, ethics training was proposed. A simulation should that if bank employees were given ethics training, mitigating risks in the commercial bank would improve up to 70%.	en_US
