ESG assurance
Demand for reliability and accuracy in ESG disclosures is growing. Regulators and international reporting standards increasingly recommend, and in some cases require, independent assurance over ESG reports. As an audit-heritage firm, BDO Bahrain brings the same rigour to ESG assurance that underpins our financial statement audit work.
BDO Bahrain helps you to:
- Obtain independent assurance over ESG reports, data and KPIs
- Prepare data and documentation to meet auditor sufficiency and quality requirements
- Align assurance readiness with GRI and IFRS Sustainability Standards
- Build internal controls that support smoother, more cost-effective assurance cycles year on year
ESG in deals
ESG is increasingly a factor in deal value, risk and investor confidence. Whether raising capital, acquiring a target or preparing for a public listing, organisations and investors need ESG due diligence that identifies risk and value creation opportunities before terms are set.
BDO Bahrain helps you to:
- Conduct ESG due diligence on acquisition targets and investments
- Assess ESG risk exposure and value creation opportunities ahead of transactions
- Support investor readiness with ESG roadmap alignment
- Advise on ESG considerations for public market listings and capital raising
ESG capacity building and training
ESG only becomes embedded when it is understood and owned across the organisation, not held within a single function. Capacity building equips the Board, senior management and operational teams with the knowledge to make ESG part of everyday decision making.
BDO Bahrain helps you to:
- Deliver ESG training for Board members, senior management and operational teams
- Define ESG ownership and accountability across departments
- Build in-house ESG capability and reduce reliance on external expertise over time
- Embed ESG considerations into procurement and operational processes
