THE BIG FOUR : KPMG

About KPMG
KPMG is a professional service company and one of the Big Four auditors, along with Deloitte, Ernst &
Young (EY), and PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC).

Seated in Amstelveen, the Netherlands, KPMG member firms operate in 153 countries, collectively
employing more than 207,000 people, serving the needs of business, governments, public-sector
agencies, not-for-profits and through member firms' audit and assurance practices, the capital markets.
KPMG is committed to quality and service excellence in all that we do, bringing best to clients and
earning the public's trust through actions and behaviours both professionally and personally.

Each national KPMG firm is an independent legal entity and is a member of KPMG International
Cooperative, a Swiss entity registered in the Swiss Canton of Zug. KPMG International changed its legal
structure from a Swiss Verein to a co-operative under Swiss law in 2003.

This structure in which the Cooperative provides support services only to the member firms is similar to
other professional services networks. The member firms provide the services to client. The purpose is to
limit the liability of each independent member.

Bill Thomas is KPMG's Global Chairman. He was formerly Senior Partner and CEO of KPMG LLP, the
KPMG member firm in Canada.

Some KPMG member firms are registered as multidisciplinary entities which also provide legal services
in certain jurisdictions.

In India, regulations do not permit foreign auditing firms to operate. Hence KPMG carries out audits in
India under the name of BSR & Co, an auditing firm that it bought off. B.S.R & Co was an auditing firm
founded by B.S.Raut in Mumbai. In 1992, after India was forced to liberalise as one of the conditions of
the world bank and IMF bail out, KPMG was granted a license to operate in India as an investment bank.
It subsequently purchased B.S.R & Co and conducts audits in India under the name of this firm.

In Indonesia, KPMG has a local partner firm namely KAP Siddharta Widjaja & Rekan, led by Tohana
Widjaja. KPMG Indonesia has an office at Wisma GKBI on floors 32-35.

through that work we also have an impact in the marketplace in general and in society
at large.
Our people embrace the responsibility they have to clients, our global network and each
other. We have a clear sense of purpose when we come to work every day:  We believe
that our work helps to build confidence in the capital markets and strengthen the
economy, ultimately driving progress and prosperity in the societies in which we live and
work
We want to work with people who share this sense of purpose. People who want to
make a change for good and contribute positively to society. People who are driven to
make a difference in the world in which they live.
 Learning and Development
The skills, knowledge and capabilities of our people are central to our success. That’s
why we’re fully committed to developing a continuous learning culture – one where
every experience adds to your professional confidence and builds your individual career
capital.

industry or pursue a long-term assignment abroad, we will give you the tools you need
to achieve your potential.

Our career support and learning environment will enable you to explore a multitude of
career paths and opportunities. And you can always talk to a mentor or career coach
about your ambitions or connect with your performance manager about your goals and
how best to achieve them.

 International assignments
 KPMG clients operate in each and every part of the world. And we’re right there with
them, ready to help. That’s why we make it as easy as possible for our people to take
advantage of international career opportunities. We encourage our KPMG professionals
to renew their passport, pack their bags and get ready to broaden their mindset – and
skillset – through both short-term assignments and permanent international relocation
options.

 Inclusion & Diversity

To work at KPMG is to see the world differently, through many different perspectives
and with a truly collaborative spirit. We empower our people to be themselves and
respect others – it’s core to our values and what we believe in.

 Values

Our people recognize their responsibility to uphold the values we’ve established over
our 140-year history. These values outline what we stand for and influence the way we
behave, both with our clients and with one another.

We lead by example

At all levels acting in a way that exemplifies what we expect of each other and our firms’
clients.

 Rewards and recognition

We work together

Bringing out the best in each other and creating strong and successful working
relationships.

We respect the individual

Respecting people for who they are and for their knowledge, skills and experience as
individuals and team members.

We seek the facts and provide insight

Challenging assumptions, pursuing facts, and strengthening our reputation as trusted

and objective business advisors.

We are open and honest in our communication

Sharing information, insight and advice frequently and constructively and managing
tough situations with courage and candor.

We are committed to our communities

Acting as responsible corporate citizens and broadening our skills, experience, and
perspectives through our work in our communities.
 Above all, we act with integrity

Constantly striving to uphold the highest professional standards, provide sound advice,
and rigorously maintain our independence.

 Rewards and recognition

We recognize potential, nurture talent and reward high performance. But beyond the
competitive salaries and comprehensive benefits you’ll benefit from an environment
where you are encouraged to fulfil your sense of purpose and drive lasting change. This
common belief we all share, and our culture of appreciation will see you recognized for
your talents and valued for the perspective you bring to your colleagues and clients.

 Experienced hires

No matter what your background is, or where you want to work in KPMG, you’ll be able to make
a sustainable difference for clients, communities and the people you work with. We value the
fresh perspectives highly talented people bring to KPMG. If you inspire confidence and want to
drive lasting, positive change, find out where you fit in.

 Audit

The recent global financial crisis proved that history isn’t a reliable guide to future
financial results. This has implications for the way in which audits are derived – we must
think outside traditional parameters so the basis of investor decision making is assured
by high quality audits. To achieve this, the profession must evolve, and our Audit teams
are leading the way in shaping what that means.

 Tax

As rapid globalization and increased competition continues, tax is playing a vital role in
shaping political and business agendas. In this new, ever-changing world of tax, clients
rely on our tax teams to help them achieve their business objectives.

Our professionals are equipped to decisively deliver new ways of thinking, big-picture
perspectives, and acute insights to help clients make informed choices. You’ll play an
integral role in the business, form important relationships and advise on key decisions in
boardrooms around the globe.

 Advisory

In today’s complex and interconnected world, clients need to transform and adapt at an
ever increasing pace. That’s where we come in. The scale, complexity and importance of
the work makes it uniquely stimulating. Expectations are high and the only way we can
meet them is by bringing the best people in the market together – intellectually acute
professionals with deep and diverse industry backgrounds – using state-of-the-art
 techniques and technology. It's challenging work, but there is an incredible sense of
achievement and real opportunity to make an impact.

 Support services

We believe in the highest standards. After all, the first step of doing great work
externally is operating at the highest levels internally. KPMG’s business support
professionals – including our people in finance, HR, IT and facilities – help make sure
we’re leading the way in the field and constantly meeting the expectations we set for
ourselves. As a member of one of our support services teams, you’ll have the
opportunity to make a genuine impact on our organization.

 STEM opportunities at KPMG

you choose to work at KPMG, you’ll have the opportunity to make a lasting impact while
utilizing your unique skills to the fullest.

Developing a fixture optimization model for the 2017/18 Australian NBL schedule was no
easy task but then neither was evolving, designing and building web and second-screen
experiences for one of the world’s biggest and best-known video game franchises.

At KPMG we love a challenge.

Take the work KPMG member firms have done to develop an interactive platform that
provides in-depth analysis of the financial and operational performance of more than
200 top European and South American professional football clubs, as well as social-
media performance metrics for over 500 clubs and 2,000 players.
 When it comes to technology, you just have to look at the way KPMG in the Netherlands
are changing the game for Ajax FC. By 2020 we will have helped to transform the Johan
Cruyff ArenA so audiences can connect to the stadium via their smartphone for traffic
updates, parking availability and directions right to their seat. Ajax themselves will be
able to monitor, manage and analyze everything from player performance to grass
health to security to beverage consumption.

 KPMG Innovation & Collaboration Challenge (KICC)

The KPMG Innovation and Collaboration Challenge (KICC) is your chance to solve some
of the world’s biggest challenges. Embark on a journey of learning, explore new
innovations and experience what it’s like to be a professional business consultant.

During KICC, you’ll work in teams of four to explore global issues, tackle big business
briefs and have an opportunity to present your innovative ideas to business leaders.

And if that wasn’t enough, the most successful teams will join us at the grand final in
Buenos Aires, Argentina in 2019, where you’ll have the opportunity to work on a new
client challenge and compete against the best of the best to become the global

 Global Internship Program

KPMG’s Global Internship Program (GIP) is your chance to jump-start your global career
through a four-week rotation in another country.

This is not a vacation or job shadow program. It’s an opportunity for students who have
already accepted an internship offer with KPMG in their home country to expand their
experience. Global interns are assigned to client engagement teams and work alongside
talented KPMG professionals. During this program, you will benefit from mentoring,
performance management and have access to our top-rated training.

 School leavers
 Work placements give you the chance to see if professional services is right for you.
They help you truly understand our business and get to know our firms' clients, people
and culture. Work placements are also a great way to experience the business world,
gain real commercial skills and have direct client contact.

During a KPMG work placement, you’ll benefit from the same high level of attention we
give all our people, including mentor support and feedback from a performance
manager. From day one, you’ll learn and discover what it’s like to be part of a
professional team. You’ll be given the support and tools you need to explore which
business areas that match your skills and interests. There will also be opportunities to
join social and community activities with your colleagues, giving you the chance to get to
know the people you work with.

Some of our member firms also participate in the Global Internship Program. This four-
week internship is designed to give students genuine and valuable insight into the global
business environment.

Our work placements vary from country to country and range from year-long to short-
term during university vacation time. You can also search our graduate database for
internship opportunities or visit the website of the country you are interested in joining.
