How Our Services Are Delivered

Across all engagements, we apply a consistent assurance approach focused on:

  • Material ESG risks and regulatory exposure
  • Data quality, traceability, and controls
  • Professional judgment and documented evidence
  • Clear, proportionate assurance conclusions
Engagements are tailored to the applicable regulatory context, reporting framework, and intended use of assurance outputs.

Professional Boundaries

To preserve independence and credibility:

  • We do not design ESG strategies or prepare disclosures we later assure

  • We do not act as advocates for specific ESG outcomes

  • We maintain separation between internal assessments and external assurance engagements

This approach supports trust in our conclusions and confidence in how our services can be relied upon by management, regulators, and other stakeholders.
