Understanding that our corporate vision is incomplete without a commitment towards the society we live in, we strive to make significant positive contributions towards the communities we operate in.

Alignment to national and global frameworks and mandates

There is an increasing push for organisations to consider their sustainability risks and opportunities. As a result, sustainability mandates and agendas have been introduced both globally and regionally to encourage corporations to conduct their businesses responsibly and align their activities to these initiatives. At KPMG LG, we strive to deliver meaningful contributions to the national and international sustainability priorities, including the Abu Dhabi Vision 2030, Oman Vision 2040, United Nations Global Compact (UNGC) Principles and the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).
We direct our efforts toward ensuring the sustainable development of a robust economy and a motivated society.
