Ethics

The Code of Ethics of the Common Europe Luxembourg Club sets out the guidelines that all club affiliates are required to respect. It may be reviewed and adapted by the Committee when necessary.

Acceptance of this Code of Ethics is mandatory for membership and for participation in club activities. Any non-compliance may be sanctioned by the Committee. The Committee may refuse participation in activities to a company’s delegate(s) and may even exclude the company from the Club.

Some guidelines :

• All commercial activity is prohibited during club meetings.
• Information and documentation received during club meetings are confidential and may only be published with the prior approval of the Committee.
• Delegates are expected to adopt appropriate dress and professional conduct.
• Any attempt to solicit or recruit personnel (“poaching”) is strictly prohibited.

Given the close relationship between the purpose of the Club and IBM, and the information needs of affiliates regarding IBM products and services, the Committee may authorize the presentation of such products and services without this being considered a breach of these guidelines.
