      Organisations in Ghana increasingly recognise that ESG performance affects access to capital, regulatory standing, and long-term competitiveness, yet many lack structured, evidence-based ESG strategy that is integrated into how the business actually makes decisions. Without this foundation, ESG programmes remain fragmented and fail to satisfy the expectations of investors, development finance institutions, and regulators.

      What we do

      KPMG Ghana works with boards and leadership teams to develop ESG strategies grounded in rigorous materiality analysis, aligned with relevant international frameworks; including the SDGs, GRI Standards, and ISSB, and tailored to the Ghanaian and African business context. We translate strategic ambition into operational roadmaps with clear priorities, accountabilities, and measurable targets.

      Our sector-specific expertise spans financial services, mining, agribusiness, oil and gas, and the public sector, ensuring that every strategy we develop reflects the distinct regulatory requirements, community dynamics, and investor expectations relevant to the client's industry in Ghana.

      ESG Materiality Assessment

      We facilitate a structured process combining stakeholder engagement, peer benchmarking, and regulatory analysis to identify and prioritise the ESG issues most material to your business. The output is a materiality matrix that provides the strategic foundation for your ESG programme and demonstrates to investors and regulators that your sustainability focus is substantive and evidence based.
