Assurance & Verification
Building trust and credibility
Overview
Reporting on environmental, social and governance (ESG) performance, in addition to financial performance, has become a mainstream business practice that is expected by capital markets. Creditors and investors are paying increased attention to these disclosures. However, for many companies, reporting credible, comparable and consistent performance data in a timely manner can be a challenge.
External third-party assurance and verification can help to address this challenge; assessing and confirming the accuracy and completeness of data collection, management and reporting. We add value through assurance and verification and provide useful management information that strengthens reporting systems, company performance and the quality of disclosures made.
