BDO meets climate targets and strengthens its ESG efforts
BDO meets climate targets and strengthens its ESG efforts
We have just published BDO’s Annual Report for 2024/25, where ESG is an integrated part of the reporting. The report marks an important step in our ESG work and provides a comprehensive overview of our strategy, objectives and initiatives.
At BDO, responsibility is not just about advisory services – it is an integrated part of our business strategy. As one of the country’s leading advisory and audit firms, BDO works actively to make a positive difference for clients, employees and society, and ESG is a central element of this effort. It is not a parallel project but a strategic priority leading up to 2026, where BDO has high ambitions to strengthen internal capabilities, help companies meet new regulatory requirements, and contribute to the sustainable transition.
For us, ESG is both a strategic focus area and a practical task that requires action and continuous development.
In the 2024/25 financial year, BDO took important steps to support this ambition, including:
These initiatives not only strengthen our reporting but also our strategic ESG efforts. We learn, adjust and keep building — because the world is constantly changing, and responsibility requires action.

In the 2024/25 financial year, BDO took important steps to support this ambition, including:
- Validation of CO₂ reduction targets: Our climate goals have been approved by the Science Based Targets initiative (SBTi), confirming that our reduction targets align with the latest climate science. In continuation of this, we reached our 2030 targets for Scope 1 and Scope 2 in 2025.
- Employee engagement (Pulse survey): 91% of employees participated in this year’s survey, where we achieved a score of 83 — placing us above the industry benchmark. 76% reported high or very high engagement, underlining that we are creating a workplace characterised by motivation, job satisfaction and a strong sense of community. It’s a clear indication that our culture of trust, dialogue and openness goes hand in hand with our strategic ambitions.
- First double materiality assessment: This analysis provides a clear overview of how our activities impact the world around us — and how external factors impact us. It is a key tool for prioritising our efforts and understanding the risks and opportunities within the ESG landscape.
These initiatives not only strengthen our reporting but also our strategic ESG efforts. We learn, adjust and keep building — because the world is constantly changing, and responsibility requires action.
