Foreword

Our Group’s reputation for being an honest, fair and capable firm with which to do business is one of our most valuable assets we are determined to preserve.

Maintaining high ethical standards within our company and in our relations with customers, suppliers, authorities and the public in general is vital to our continuous success wherever we operate.

For this reason we have developed this publication, the PVM Code of Conduct that sets forth the principles that apply to all PVM people everywhere and in every circumstance. It is important that its content is well known and understood by each of us, as it highlights our responsibility, as a Group and as individuals, to implement and protect our core values and our ethical standards in the way we do business.

Let us rely on this code and our shared values to guide our behaviour every day and everywhere, thus making PVM a great company to work for and to work with.
