Integrating ESG is not a check-the-box exercise, and the journey is not linear.
Each company’s path toward sustainability is unique. BDO can help you incorporate ESG into your corporate strategy by aligning your business model with the issues and concerns of highest importance to your stakeholders. Building sustainability and resilience into your business doesn’t happen overnight. It’s a journey that cultivates the greatest benefits via a disciplined and pragmatic approach.
In addition to better responding to the demands of customers, investors, employees and other stakeholders, organizations that develop an ESG strategy and program frequently enjoy competitive advantage, preferential access to and reduced cost of capital and lower reputational risk. They also attract and retain superior talent, address greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions reporting requirements and drive organizational resilience.
BDO works with you to build an ESG program that creates long-term, sustainable value for your organization and your stakeholders. We focus on setting achievable goals and milestones that advance your sustainability agenda at your own pace.

Prepare for the SEC’s Proposed Climate Risk Disclosures
The SEC’s Proposed Climate Risk Disclosures have made ESG reporting a priority for public companies and many private companies within their value chains. Not only will the rule require disclosure of GHG emissions in annual reports and registration statements, but it also requires certain businesses to obtain third-party assurance over their reporting.
You can trust BDO to listen and understand your needs as you prepare for compliance with the proposed disclosure requirements. We can help you establish and implement new systems and internal controls over ESG data as well as automate data capture, analysis and ongoing reporting.
