Azets outlines plans to strengthen investment in ESG
International business advisory group Azets has unveiled plans to strengthen its investment in environmental, social, and governance (ESG). The company said ESG is at the 'heart' of its 'long-term strategy'. The company's latest ESG impact report, Making an Impact in 2024, highlights its approach to addressing environmental and social challenges while maintaining a focus on sustainability. Azets' ESG impact report outlines its efforts to reduce emissions in line with the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), supported by investment in renewable energy and waste reduction. The company has also initiated a double materiality assessment under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive to identify the ESG impacts and associated financial risks. Azets Group CEO Chris Horne said: "This is no time to slow down. Sustainability is not a trend or a checkbox exercise – it's a responsibility we take very seriously and [it is] fundamental to how we operate. 'While some businesses may be retreating from ESG commitments under external pressures, we're doubling down. Our focus is on meaningful action, not just rhetoric, and our latest ESG impact report is proof of that.' The report further states that the company's workforce is participating in new learning and development programmes, such as the Azets Academy in Ireland. The introduction of values-based leadership behaviours provides a clear framework for achieving excellence across the organisation, says the company. Azets' colleagues have raised more than £100,000 ($131,000) for charities through initiatives such as Azets 4 Kids. To ensure adherence to the highest ESG standards, Azets has strengthened its leadership frameworks, increased accountability, and enhanced transparency. In February 2025, Azets entered an agreement to acquire part of KPMG Sweden's operations. The acquisition includes audit, tax, and advisory services for small and medium-sized enterprises, as well as audit-related services for municipalities and regions.
