The path we help others walk

The second way in which we are making a contribution to sustainability is by putting our know-how at the service of our clients, tertiary sector organizations, the press and trade associations.

Our practices offer insight into the complexity, identify opportunities and challenges, and anticipate the potential impact of the changes continually taking place in the environment in which we operate. Using that information, we can help our stakeholders find optimal solutions. This contribution involves:

Helping professionalize our clients – We help our clients in their expansion process by offering them training and know-how so that they can navigate their way more safely around the complexities. In so doing, we help them generate revenue and jobs in the communities surrounding their operations. We also create value by helping them pay taxes appropriately under current regulations, and to impart quality, transparency and credibility to their financial statements. In this way, we encourage good practice in the markets in which we operate.

Sharing know-how – The active participation of our staff in debates and discussions about the regulatory environment and the markets in which our practices are involved helps form a critical mass on important themes, through research, representations, talks, events and publications.

Restoring market confidence – When we look at the serious crisis of confidence that has gripped the world, it is clear that responsible audit, tax and advisory practices have an important role to play in creating a more transparent, responsible and effective business environment. We are committed to making our own contribution to that process.

Training professionals for the market – Our intensive investment in the training and development of our staff not only affects the performance excellence of KPMG in Brazil and our clients, but also equips the market with qualified professionals. Those who do not pursue their careers in our Organization take our expertise with them to major Brazilian and multinational companies, which creates value for KPMG in Brazil, our clients and society as a whole.

Spearheading positive change – We are committed to the values of the communities in which we operate and to the events that affect them. That commitment is one of the most lasting qualities of our staff and brand. We are committed to bringing about positive change, leading by example and inspiring our stakeholders to do the same.

As we advance along these pathways, we contribute to the transition to responsible capitalism and creating collective value.
