In this paper, we establish the multiplicative ergodic theorem for McKean-Vlasov stochastic differential equations, in which the Lyapunov exponent is defined using the upper limit. The reasonability of this definition is illustrated through an example; i.e., even when the coefficients are regular enough and their first-order derivatives are bounded, the upper limit cannot be replaced by a limit, as the limit may not exist. Furthermore, the example reveals how the dependence on distribution significantly influences the dynamics of the system and evidently distinguishes McKean-Vlasov stochastic differential equations from classical stochastic differential equations.
