ETHICS & COMPLIANCE
" At LVMH in our Maisons, we have long distinguished ourselves by making strong commitments to and taking care to comply with the highest standards of ethics and integrity, social responsibility, and respect for the environment, everywhere in the world. "
Bernard Arnault
LVMH CODE OF CONDUCT
The Code of Conduct reflects the Group’s commitments to ethics and integrity, social and environmental responsibility. It refers to the charters and internal policies that have been developed on these topics: together, they form the ethics framework that governs all actions taken by LVMH and set out the rules that each employee must follow in their day-to-day activities.The Code of Conduct is divided into three chapters:
- a committed group
- a responsible employer
- a group with integrity
SUPPLIER AND BUSINESS PARTNER CODE OF CONDUCT
LVMH attaches great importance to ensuring that its suppliers and business partners as well as their subcontractors share a set of common rules, practices and principles with respect to ethics, social responsibility and protection of the environment.Each LVMH Group Maison therefore requires its suppliers and business partners to respect the principles detailed in the Supplier and Business Partner Code of Conduct and to ensure that their own suppliers and subcontractors do the same in the conduct of their activities for the Group.> Access the Supplier and Business Partner Code of Conduct
THE LVMH ANTI-CORRUPTION CHARTER

THE RESPONSIBLE LOBBYING CHARTER
The LVMH Group takes part in public policy discussions in a spirit of constructive dialogue and cooperation with the stakeholders concerned, including but not only political leaders and the institutions responsible for decision-making.

LVMH ALERT LINE
LVMH encourages open communication and dialogue within the Group and with its external partners and clients (“stakeholders”): that’s why the Group created the LVMH Alert Line, an online interface that provides a fully confidential and secure way of reporting in good faith violations of the laws, regulations, or principles of internal conduct.> Find out more about the LVMH Alert Line
