      We are excited to share that KPMG has been named a global leader in the Verdantix Green Quadrant: ESG and Sustainability Consulting 2024.

      KPMG firms have once again been recognized as a global leader in Sustainability Consulting in the Verdantix Green Quadrant: Sustainability Consulting 2026. In our view, this recognition reflects KPMG’s strength in helping organizations move beyond aspiration — integrating sustainability and ESG considerations into strategy, operations, and governance in ways that are practical, scalable, and value‑focused.

      As sustainability expectations continue to evolve, organizations are seeking advisory partners that can connect environmental and social priorities to financial performance, risk management, and long‑term resilience. KPMG brings together global scale, deep sector insight, and operational execution to help organizations navigate complexity, respond to stakeholder and regulatory expectations, and embed sustainability into enterprise decision‑making.

      KPMG’s strengths recognized by Verdantix

      • “Strong emphasis on a value-driven approach to sustainability transformation. KPMG’s sustainability offering is increasingly differentiated by its focus on value-led transformation, positioning sustainability as an enabler of enterprise-wide change, rather than a standalone advisory capability. This repositioning is underpinned by investment in embedding sustainability in proprietary platforms, notably Velocity, its AI-enabled transformation framework, and KPMG Elevate, its data-driven methodology to identify, quantify and execute value opportunities across more than 400 sub-sector analytical building blocks; together, these strengthen clients’ ability to quantify value creation and preservation, and support sustainability-aligned transformational outcomes.”
      • “At a market level, KPMG’s work on initiatives around the financial business case for sustainability reinforces this orientation, by seeking to address structural misalignment between sustainability risks and traditional accounting and valuation models through cross-stakeholder collaboration. The emphasis on value also informs KPMG’s persistent focus on social sustainability, illustrated by its work with island nations such as Barbados to support inclusive climate resilience strategies.”
      • “Balanced scale and granularity in sustainability delivery. KPMG is best-suited to organizations seeking to evaluate sustainability initiatives through a clear return on investment (ROI) lens, particularly where the commercial rationale is still emerging or contested. The firm combines the scale required to support large, complex organizations with the operational granularity needed to translate ambition into implementable change. As such, KPMG is a strong fit for both large and smaller businesses at varyiith broader operational and financial objectives.”

      We are proud of the commitment KPMG firms have demonstrated in building a leading ESG team focused on helping clients harness the power of ESG to transform their business. KPMG firms’ ESG solutions are both holistic and practical, and designed to help organizations turn their ESG aspirations into action. Through industry-leading knowledge, data-driven technology and global alliances, KPMG’s experience across critical ESG issues means our professionals can assist clients in creating the right roadmap for their ESG journey and execute on that plan.

      According to the report, "Large firms at various levels of ESG maturity, looking for integrated sustainability solutions, should approach KPMG, to profit from its synergistic approach to sustainability. KPMG is also well-suited to firms that require a strategy lens for climate, carbon, circular economy, and water- and nature-related reporting and disclosures. In addition, businesses should contemplate using KPMG’s services for projects involving the testing of governance models for ESG-relevant inadequacies, and to benefit from the provider’s capabilities in anticipating and managing ESG-related reputational risks, and threats from potential litigation and shareholder activism.”

      This acknowledgement from Verdantix underscores the tangible business impact that ESG can have when integrated into core strategy and operations. KPMG’s ESG Advisory team is committed to guiding clients beyond compliance — helping them uncover and realize the value that sustainability brings to long-term resilience and competitive advantage. Leveraging data, technology, and industry insight, we empower organizations to turn ESG ambition into actionable, measurable outcomes.
