KPMG member firms are committed to using AI ethically and responsibly


      We believe in the transformative power of AI. And that it can only reach its full potential when it is paired with human expertise and ingenuity.

      At KPMG, our purpose is to inspire confidence and empower change. Tracing our origins back over 150 years, our people have played a leading role in harnessing the power of new technologies and providing assurance and direction in implementing them.

      KPMG member firms are committed to upholding ethical standards for AI solutions that align with our values and professional standards, and that foster the trust of our clients, people, communities, and regulators. We are steadfast in our commitment to act in a way that serves the public interest, honors public trust, and demonstrates our commitment to professional excellence.

      The KPMG Trusted AI principles

      Across KPMG member firms, our approach to trusted AI includes foundational principles that guide our aspirations in this space, demonstrating our commitment to using it responsibly and ethically:

      Values-driven

      We implement AI as guided by our Values. They are our differentiator and shape a culture that is open, inclusive and operates to the highest ethical standards. Our Values inform our day-to-day behaviours and help us navigate emerging opportunities and challenges.

      Human-centric

      We prioritize human impact as we deploy AI and recognize the needs of our clients and our people. We are embracing this technology to empower and augment human capabilities — to unleash creativity and improve productivity in a way that allows people to reimagine how they spend their days.

      Trustworthy

      We will adhere to our principles and the ethical pillars that guide how and why we use AI across its lifecycle. We will strive to ensure our data acquisition, governance and usage practices upholds ethical standards and complies with applicable privacy and data protection regulations, as well as any confidentiality requirements.

      We recognize that the field of AI is rapidly evolving — and so is our approach. As the technology advances and legal, ethical, risk and regulatory standards mature, we will continue to review and evolve our approach as necessary.

      India’s tech ecosystem is uniquely positioned to leapfrog into the intelligent enterprise era, with 81% of technology firms planning to systematically integrate AI into their products and services within the next 12 months. The strategic integration of AI can redefine our global competitiveness, as 63% of enterprises are set to increase AI spending by more than 10% in the coming year.

      However, realising AI’s full value requires a concerted effort - underscoring the importance of robust governance frameworks, talent development, and embedding AI into core business operations. Organisations that proactively embrace these imperatives will not only drive innovation but also set new benchmarks in delivering value and efficiency..

      The global economic paradigm is changing as companies are under tremendous pressure from people across the world to account for the social impact of their businesses. Moreover, endless growth with profit as the sole metric is no longer sustainable. The consequences of social and environmental imbalance are mostly seen in the long term. If allowed to go unchecked, the disruption caused may cause a significant dip in growth and corporate valuations.
