Platinum produced for jewellery is certified to be responsibly sourced, adhering to the ‘Good Delivery Practice’ standards of the London Platinum and Palladium Market (LPPM).

Conforming to the LPPM Responsible Sourcing Guidance is a requirement for all refiners wishing to achieve and maintain trading accreditation. This is intended to assure investors and consumers that all LPPM Good Delivery metal is conflict-free due to compliance with an audited sourcing process.

The Responsible Platinum and Palladium Guidance (RPP) is based on the OECD Due Diligence Guidance and Anti-Money Laundering and Combatting Terrorist Financing regulations. 

RPP was introduced in 2019 and is aligned with the existing LBMA Responsible Sourcing Guidance documents. Platinum and Palladium good delivery refiners are required to comply with this new guidance in full from 2020 onwards.

To maintain inclusion on the LPPM’s Good Delivery Lists, refiners must pass an LPPM Responsible Sourcing audit every year and a Proactive Monitoring (PAM) every three years.
