      KPMG firms have once again been recognized as a global leader in Sustainability Consulting in the Verdantix Green Quadrant: Sustainability Consulting 2026. 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 with broader operational and financial objectives.”

      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.


      This recognition validates our focus on value led transformation, leading to the strategic reporting that stakeholders seek. We’re helping clients embed sustainability directly into how they define value and make critical business decisions.
