Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) considerations increasingly influence trillions of dollars of investment decisions and drive government policies. A commitment to ESG can help companies to attract and retain talent, increase investor confidence, and reduce operational and regulatory risks.
Asian issuers operate in societies that are often on the front lines of the impact of climate change. Contributions to meeting important social goals can help win critical policy support from local government. Embracing governance excellence helps companies stand out as industry leaders. Sophisticated public companies from Asia set forth ESG strategies and KPIs and then report transparently about their progress in achieving these targets.
Diverse By Design
By its very nature, MarcumAsia’s business is focused on providing a bridge between Asia and the global investment community. Our success is based on attracting the best people from different nations and cultures and creating a unique culture based on collaboration, sharing multiple perspectives, and respect. Bridging cultures generates more creative solutions, greater empathy, and invaluable client insights. Our workplace encourages people to speak their minds and reach their full potential, regardless of background, gender, sexual orientation, or any factor that contributes to the richness of the human experience.
Founded on Integrity
As auditors, we play an essential role in ensuring the integrity of the financial information that investors rely upon to allocate capital and sustain their retirements. Every member of our professional staff commits to the MarcumAsia Code of Conduct and receives annual training in ethics. Even more critical, we promote the culture that it is equally important to do the right thing when the rules are unclear. In recent years, we have dramatically increased our investment in audit quality to support the growth of our practice. MarcumAsia’s QC team is deeply integrated with the audit practice to promote deep knowledge and efficient resolution of issues as they arise.
Environmental Impact
MarcumAsia is committed to reducing the environmental impact of our business globally. Recent initiatives have focused on transitioning to paperless audits and reducing unnecessary business travel. As we advance, we are looking to measure and ultimately minimize the carbon footprint of our operations globally.
