Code of Conduct for Business Partners

DB Group’s Code of Conduct commits our suppliers and business partners to comply with ethical and legal standards. It forms an important basis for our cooperative business dealings.

The DB Code of Conduct for Business Partners clearly formulates the expectations of DB: suppliers and business partners agree to comply with the requirements of the Code. For DB this represents a significant contribution for sustainable conduct in the supply chain.

Our Code of Conduct for Business Partners is based - among others - on the principles of the UN Global Compact and the same principles we have set in DB’s Corporate Principles Ethics - Code of Conduct for our managers and employees. It is addressed to all companies and individuals worldwide from whom we purchase goods or services.
