**Exhibit 14****CODE OF BUSINESS CONDUCT AND ETHICS****Introduction**          This Code of Business Conduct and Ethics covers a wide range of business practices andprocedures. It does not cover every issue that may arise, but it sets out basic principles toguide all employees of DiamondCluster International. All of our employees must conduct themselvesaccordingly and seek to avoid even the appearance of improper behavior. The Code should also beprovided to and followed by the firm’s agents and representatives, including directors and outsideconsultants. All references to employees in This Code of Business Conduct and Ethics includes allemployees, partners and officers of the firm.          If a law conflicts with a policy in this Code, you must comply with the law; however, if alocal custom or policy conflicts with this Code, you must comply with the Code. If you have anyquestions about these conflicts, you should contact the firm’s Chief People Officer or its GeneralCounsel. Those who violate the standards in this Code will be subject to disciplinary action whichmay include dismissal from the firm. *If you are in a situation which you believe may violate orlead to a violation of this Code, follow the guidelines described in Section 15 of this Code*.**1. Compliance with Laws, Rules and Regulations**          Obeying the law, both in letter and in spirit, is the foundation on which DiamondCluster’sethical standards are built. All employees must respect and obey the laws of the cities, statesand countries in which we operate. Although not all employees are expected to know the details ofthese laws, it is important to know enough to determine when to seek advice from supervisors,managers or other appropriate personnel.          DiamondCluster provides all necessary information to you to promote compliance with laws,rules and regulations, including insider-trading laws.**2. Conflicts of Interest**          A “conflict of interest” exists when a person’s private interest interferes in any way withthe interests of the firm. A conflict situation can arise when an employee, officer or directortakes actions or has interests that may make it difficult to perform his or her Company workobjectively and effectively. Conflicts of interest may also arise when an employee or director, ormembers of his or her family, receives improper personal benefits as a result of his or herposition in the firm. Loans to, or guarantees of obligations of, employees and their familymembers may create conflicts of interest.          It is almost always a conflict of interest for a DiamondCluster employee to work (other thanin his or her capacity as a DiamondCluster employee) simultaneously for a competitor, client orsupplier. You are not allowed to work for a competitor as a consultant or
 

 
board member. The best policy is to avoid any direct or indirect outside business connectionwith our clients, suppliers or competitors, except on our behalf in the normal course of business.          Conflicts of interest are prohibited as a matter of firm policy. Conflicts of interest maynot always be clear-cut, so if you have a question, you should consult with DiamondCluster’s ChiefPeople Officer or General Counsel. Any employee or director who becomes aware of a conflict orpotential conflict should bring it to the attention of a supervisor, or partner or consult theprocedures described in Section 14 of this Code.**3. Insider Trading**          Employees, directors and outside consultants who have access to confidential information arenot permitted to use or share that information for stock trading purposes or for any other purposeexcept the conduct of our business. All non-public information about DiamondCluster or its clientsshould be considered confidential information. To use non-public information for personalfinancial benefit or to “tip” others who might make an investment decision on the basis of thisinformation is not only unethical but also illegal. If you have any questions, please consult thefirm’s General Counsel.**4. Corporate Opportunities**          Employees, and directors are prohibited from taking for themselves personally opportunitiesthat are discovered through the use of corporate property, information or position without theconsent of the Board of Directors.

Employees, and directors owe a duty to the firm to advance its legitimate interestswhen the opportunity to do so arises.**5.

These are the steps to keep in mind:**•** Make sure you have all the facts. In order to reach the rightsolutions, we must be as fully informed as possible.**•** Ask yourself: What specifically am I being asked to do? Does itseem unethical or improper? This will enable you to focus on thespecific question you are faced with, and the alternatives youhave. Use your judgment and common sense; if something seemsunethical or improper, it probably is.**•** Clarify your responsibility and role. In most situations, thereis shared responsibility. Are your colleagues informed? It mayhelp to get others involved and discuss the problem.**•** Discuss the problem with your supervisor or partner. This is thebasic guidance for all situations. In many cases, your supervisoror partner will be more knowledgeable about the question, and willappreciate being brought into the decision-making process.Remember that it is your supervisor’s or partner’s responsibilityto help solve problems.**•** Seek help from firm resources. In the rare case where it may notbe appropriate to discuss an issue with your supervisor orpartner, or where you do not feel comfortable approaching yoursupervisor or partner with your question, discuss it the firm’sHuman Resources team.**•** You may report ethical violations in confidence and without fearof retaliation.
