KPMG named a global market Leader in ESG Social Services

KPMG firms have been recognized as ‘a global Leader’ by ALM Intelligence in their latest Pacesetter research entitled ESG: Social, 2024.

The report states, “KPMG works with clients to develop an ESG framework that is transformative, flexible, and leverages data and technology to drive measurable impact and achieve long-term value.”

We are proud of the commitment KPMG firms have demonstrated in building a leading practice focused on understanding the power of ESG to transform a business and build a more sustainable future.

The report mentions: “For KPMG, developing and implementing an effective ESG framework is an enterprise-wide transformational initiative. In line with the firm’s end-all, one-stop-shop for business transformation business model, KPMG has developed a number of ESG solutions to support clients with their ESG-related needs. Some of these solutions include but are not limited to, strategy transformation and implementation, value and deals, assurance in audit, tax and legal services, and reporting.”

The report concludes, “The firm has recognized that the growing importance of the “S” in ESG is driven by shifting priorities, influence, and scrutiny from investors, customers, talent, and community stakeholders, increasing pressure for clients to report their social impact data. In response to this need and based on the firm’s own learnings and relationships with clients, not-for-profits, regulators, governments, and sector associations, KPMG offers social sustainability services on a global scale.” Adding “The firm's social solutions are grounded in impact, evaluation, and assessment analysis coupled with perception and sentiment analysis to bridge the voices of all relevant stakeholders. KPMG’s value proposition is based on integrating social considerations across its professional services to help drive business growth while contributing to societal well-being and sustainable development.”

At KPMG we recognize the importance of having people at the center of every business decision. We help leaders to analyze social data to understand the potential impact of their decisions in the different communities they serve: employees, customers, vendors, partners and investors. We are very proud to receive the ALM recognition as KPMG firms help organizations to mitigate the risks ahead, by including from the start the communities that are missing at the table, to build inclusive cultures, equitable systems, and fair business value chains
