KPMG Singapore’s new managing partner says ESG is next big growth opportunity
KPMG in Singapore is banking on environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) services to drive growth, as businesses in the Republic face an urgent imperative to adopt sustainable practices.
The Singapore office of the professional services giant is training staff and building its own capabilities accordingly, managing partner Lee Sze Yeng told The Business Times in an interview shortly after taking on the role.
Lee, formerly deputy managing director and head of audit, took over in October from Ong Pang Thye, who had been managing partner since 2016.
