In 2023, PMI began its Legal & Compliance integration efforts with Swedish Match to ensure that PMI’s standards and requirements are also applied across Swedish Match entities.
Highlights from these efforts in 2023 include the launch of the PMI Code of Conduct to Swedish Match employees globally, implementation of PMI’s Whistleblower/Speaking Up Program (including the third-party-operated PMI Compliance Help Line), and the launch of key Compliance policies, including PMI’s Marketing Codes and Personal Data Protection Policy, among others.
Integration efforts are ongoing and will continue throughout 2024.
