At KPMG, we know that trust is earned by doing the right thing—not just some of the time but all the time. And as the world rapidly changes and becomes more complex, this simple principle has never been more important.

We are committed to the highest standards of personal and professional behavior in everything we do. Ethics and integrity are core to who we are and why everyone at KPMG is held to this promise of excellence.

Within our Global Code of Conduct, we outline the responsibilities all KPMG people have to each other, our clients, and the public. It shows how our Values and Purpose inspire our greatest aspirations and guide all our behaviors and actions. It defines what it means to work at and be part of KPMG, as well as our individual and collective responsibilities.

As auditors, accountants, tax consultants, lawyers and consultants of KPMG we are at the heart of society and seek to take responsibility in what we do. Corporate social responsibility is therefore an indispensable part of our services and the way we work. Our code of conduct for vendors is an integral aspect of our corporate social responsibility goals. That is why we ask our vendors to take note of the content of this code of conduct and endorse and apply the values and standards set out in this document.
