Sustainability at KPMG

We are committed to a 50% reduction on our 2019 emissions baseline across our Scope 1, 2, and 3 emissions by 2030. Our progress includes continuing to procure 100% renewable electricity for our tenancies, placing a fee on our air travel through our Internal Price on Carbon, and working closely with our suppliers to ensure their decarbonisation targets are aligned with ours.

As a leading provider of sustainability services, we have an important role to play in supporting the decarbonisation of our clients across industries, including carbon-intensive ones, by 2030, and in providing clients and financial markets with high quality information to support decision-making and disclosures, including assurance over climate and sustainability metrics.

Since 2022, the KPMG Nature Positive Challenge supports the growth of innovative startups and impact ventures working on protecting nature and restoring biodiversity. We plant a tree for every KPMG employee annually and use the funds collected through our Internal Price on Carbon to support high integrity carbon credits.

Since 2024, KPMG has voluntarily published our Climate Risk Report, disclosing our approach to identify, assess and mitigate our climate risks and opportunities.

Sustainability is embedded in our technology choices. We prioritise cloud and data partners with science-based emissions targets and have powered our offsite data centres with renewable electricity since 2024.

We hold ourselves accountable through clear, comprehensive reporting. Our annual disclosures including Our Impact Plan and our Climate Risk Report highlight our progress, challenges, and learnings across our sustainability commitments and targets.

Our people are central to our sustainability journey. We support employee-led initiatives like volunteering, recycling, and green travel, and provide training to inspire action at every level.

Through KPMG International (KPMGI) we engage with businesses, leaders, governments, and other key stakeholders to drive positive impact for people and nature on a global scale.
