KPMG in Malaysia presents the FY2024 update of our environmental, social, and governance (ESG) commitments. This report reflects our dedication to transparency and accountability, while illustrating the positive influence we aim to have on society and the environment.
Covering the period from 1 October 2023 to 30 September 2024, the Our Impact Plan report captures progress across all KPMG offices in Malaysia. Our ESG journey, however, began in 2021, when KPMG International invested more than USD 1.5 billion over three years to embed ESG across the firm. Locally, this commitment gave rise to the Impact@KPMG initiative in October 2021, which continues to empower our people to be agents of change and drivers of purposeful progress.
The report demonstrates how we bring our purpose to life through the four pillars of our ESG commitments — People, Planet, Prosperity and Governance — and stands as a testament to our collective impact, marking another milestone in our journey. It has been developed in reference to:
- Global Reporting Initiative (GRI) Standards (2021 update);
- Bursa Malaysia’s Sustainability Reporting Guide (3rd Edition);
- World Economic Forum’s International Business Council (WEF IBC) Core Metrics;
- United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UN SDG);
- United Nations (UN) Global Compact Principles;
- IFRS S1 General requirements for Disclosure of Sustainability-related Financial Information; and
- IFRS S2 Climate-related Disclosures.
