Growth: Sustainability

Sustainability focus is not new for family businesses

Family businesses are increasingly aware of the need to operate in a sustainable manner. This includes reducing their environmental impact and promoting social responsibility, while understanding the need for financial sustainability. The KPMG Private Enterprise Global Family Business Network, in collaboration with STEP Project Global Consortium, published a study titled ‘A road well-traveled' which reflects on how family businesses are guiding the sustainability journey. The findings presented are the product of personal interviews and group discussions with family business leaders across the world. The key findings from this study form the basis for the insights being shared.
