I think B as the other are connected with compliance with laws or regulations or are connected with general non-ethical objectives and control of the company. B is clearly connected with ethical behaviour.

In a lot of these types of question you are looking for the answer(s) that best fit the question. In my mind B does the above quite clearly in my opinion. Hope this helps.
