Recognizing the importance of having clear ownership rules between the Municipality and EPM, in 2007 the Framework Agreement for Relations between the Municipality of Medellín and Empresas Públicas de Medellín E.S.P (EPM) was signed, which establishes, among other things, the guiding principles of agreement, the obligations of the Municipality, the obligations of EPM and the model of corporate social responsibility in accordance with the commitments assumed within the framework of voluntary adherence to the Global Compact.
During 2009, the Medellín-EPM Municipal Relations Framework Agreement remained in force as a commitment made to the city to establish equitable and transparent relations between the company and its owner.
