A message from our Chair and CEO
Paul Knopp
At KPMG, our Values — Integrity, Excellence, Courage, Together, and For Better — are at the core of everything we do. Our continued hard work and investments propel the progress we’ve made so far toward our commitments. This year, the 2024 KPMG U.S. Impact Plan highlights the actions we’ve taken to enhance accountability and transparency in our work.
Each pillar of this report — People, Planet, Prosperity, and Principles of Governance — is crucial to our success in this business environment. The world is growing increasingly complex, and the future leaders of our industry will be those who attract the most innovative and skilled people, create diverse and well-managed teams, and build connections based on trust with their clients and our society.
Chair and CEO, KPMG LLP
That’s why we are continuing to invest for the future, including through more sustainable business operations and supporting the resilience and well-being of our people and communities. From investing in the talent pipeline when professional services and accounting firms are seeing fewer CPAs pursue the profession, to creating more sustainable offices so that we can continue to do our work for decades to come, our aspirations reflect our strategy, strength, and future as a trusted advisor for our clients and the C-suite.
Our success as a leader in our industry also hinges on trust. As stewards of the capital markets, trust is the foundation of all our efforts. And in an increasingly complex environment, building and maintaining trust with our people, clients, and society continues to guide how we approach our services, operations, and collaborations.
When we began this journey, we focused on the areas that we believed to be essential to our success as an industry leader, as well as where we could make the most meaningful difference. We are proud of the progress we have achieved toward our aspirational goals, and we remain committed to advancing them in the future. The ambition, investment, and rigor we’ve implemented over the past three years have laid the groundwork for us to capitalize on new technologies and all they have to offer in support of our commitments. Amid all this change, our multi-disciplinary model, our Values-driven culture, and our commitment to the capital markets remain strong.
As we continue to drive progress toward our commitments, I’m proud of how far we’ve come and what the future holds in store. I’m pleased to be able to share these efforts with you, and to introduce the 2024 KPMG U.S. Impact Plan.
