Growing our people
To grow, we believe that everyone needs to be challenged and have the courage to challenge. This requires an environment where everyone feels safe and confident. A place filled with people who are genuinely interested in other colleagues and what drives them. Together, we have all created and continue to contribute to a culture of kindness, where the team always beats the sum of individuals.
We recognise the significance of supporting our people at every stage of their career, both professionally and personally. We believe that well-being starts with acknowledging the needs of our people. That has led to us instituting additional networks and initiatives during 2023 customised to our employees' current life circumstances.

Growing our business
In KPMG Acor Tax we solve complex tax matters. We collaborate closely with a broad range of different companies of all sizes across a wide range of tax and technology areas – whether navigating complex tax matters, getting ahead of future compliance requirements, driving processes and boosting cost efficiencies or assisting our clients in rethinking the way in-house tax functions operate to make them fit for the future.
Our results demonstrate our relevance in the market, serve not only as a testimony to the trust our clients continuously put in us, but also as a proof of our ability to combine our deep tax technical knowledge and expertise with emerging technologies, as well as a testimony to our successful 360 approach and our close collaboration with our clients.
Tax is key in a sustainable world
The world is evolving. The growing climate crisis is driving increasing demands on businesses to implement sustainable initiatives and turn ESG into action and support heads of tax and their companies as they navigate the green transition.
As national and international tax policymaking shapes behaviour towards a sustainable world, and with tax revenues being a key lever to deliver on the UN’s Sustainable Development Goals, tax is becoming a strategic governance focus for companies.
Our cross-functional team of experienced professionals has also this year provided advice to a large number of companies on key tax and ESG areas, from responsible tax and transparency to green taxation and ESG funding opportunities.
Fuelling our digital mindset
Technology has been both an area of dedicated focus and investment throughout 2023 across our business, enabling us to continuously deliver value for and together with our clients. Technology is also a quintessential part for much of the innovation and the entrepreneurial spirit at KPMG Acor Tax. We see technology as one of the most important drivers and enablers to ensure efficiency and effectiveness with the ultimate goal of delivering services of highest professional standards.
During 2023, we continued to make significant investments and have immense focus on the technology agenda across the whole organisation, including enabling and elevating our digital mindset. And we will continue to enhance our technology platform, enabling us to incorporate emerging technologies internally and externally.
Looking ahead
We remain optimistic about the future and stay confident that we will be able to deliver on our 2025 strategy and the ambition and goals that we have set. In 2024, we will in particular put emphasis on the following strategic focus areas:
Together, we solve tax matters. Yours. Truly.
