Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu and its member firms are committed to the highest levels of ethics, integrity and quality. This is evidenced by the member firms’ business practices and client service standards, their leadership behavior and shared values, and most importantly, by the quality of the people they employ. In fact, ethics, integrity and quality are at the core of all that Deloitte do.

Deloitte and its member firms strive to do not only what is legal, but what is right. The people of Deloitte have high professional and ethical standards and demonstrate these standards every day through the delivery of quality professional services. They understand that doing the right thing means operating within the letter and the spirit of the laws that govern their professions and the global marketplace.

Culture of Integrity
This orientation towards integrity and ethical behavior is an integral part of the culture at Deloitte. It’s embedded in the way they each make decisions, the way they take action, the way they treat their clients and in the way they treat each other.
Deloitte sustains this culture by providing an open and consultative environment that encourages their people to raise issues and discuss differences of opinion. In addition, Deloitte works hard to provide their people with the appropriate tools and guidance as they strive to make ethical decisions and take responsible action each day.

Ethical Principles
At the heart of this effort are the Ethical Principles of the Member Firms of Deloitte. Adopted by each of the member firms and linking directly to the Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Global Shared Values, these nine principles define the standards of ethical behavior that unite all the people of Deloitte. In particular, the principles offer guidance about appropriate ethical and professional conduct covering areas that are critically important to the member firms’ clients, their people and society.
