KPMG N.V. is one of the Netherlands’ leading providers of assurance and advisory services. We are part of the global KPMG network, which operates in 143 countries and territories worldwide. We work with public, private, and nonprofit companies in industries ranging from financial services and consumer retail to energy, infrastructure, and healthcare. Through our work, we aim to ensure public trust in companies, institutions, and financial markets.
Our businesses
The KPMG network has offices around the world. KPMG Accountants N.V. and KPMG Advisory N.V. are subsidiaries of KPMG N.V., an independent member of the global KPMG network, affiliated with KPMG International Limited (“KPMG International”), a private UK company limited by guarantee. KPMG is the brand under which the member firms of KPMG International operate and provide professional services. Each KPMG firm is a legally distinct and separate entity and describes itself as such. KPMG N.V. is responsible for its own obligations and liabilities.
KPMG International and its related entities do not provide services to clients. In many countries, highly regulated industries such as audit and assurance must be locally owned and managed. As a result, KPMG member firms do not – and cannot – operate as a typical multinational would. Being a member of KPMG International gives us access to the network’s worldwide resources and expertise. As a member firm, we also abide by the shared values and comply with the policies, regulations, and standards of KPMG International.
Our two primary businesses are Assurance and Advisory, supported by Business Services. Tax advisory services are offered through KPMG Meijburg & Co,[1] which is also part of the KPMG network. KPMG N.V. has 12 offices across the Netherlands and is headquartered in Amstelveen.
Assurance
Assurance includes both audit and non-financial assurance. We audit financial statements, reports, and other regulatory and non-regulatory disclosures. Our Assurance business comprises five main units: National Practice, Financial Services, Information Technology (IT) Assurance, ESG Assurance, and Accounting Advisory.
Advisory
Through our Advisory business, we help clients manage risk, improve strategy and performance, digitalize systems and processes, and seize new opportunities for growth. Our Advisory business is organized into five suites – Strategy & Operations, Deals, Finance & Business Services, Risk & Regulatory, and Technology – and increasingly focuses on integrated implementation projects.
Business Services
Business Services consists of the joint staff departments within KPMG N.V.: Brand Reputation & Marketing, Business Service Center, Facilities & Procurement, Finance, Human Resources, IT Services, Legal, and Risk Management. Business Services is committed to protecting and upholding what is valuable for our organization: our people, quality, reputation, financial resources, IT systems, offices, and intellectual property.
Purpose and values
Our purpose at KPMG N.V. is to inspire confidence and empower change. To help us deliver on this purpose, we are led by five values that guide our actions, decisions, and ways of working – with each other, our clients, and our other stakeholders.
