This is our 9th Integrated Annual Report (IAR). It contains information on the impact we make, how we create value, our strategy and our related performance for the financial year that started on June 1, 2023 and ended on May 31, 2024. It builds on our previous IAR, published on September 22, 2023.
In line with our ambition to be the undisputed leader in professional services, we have based this report on the European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) as mandated by the EU Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). For the sake of transparency, we have included an ESRS reference table in Annex 3.
We publish our Report as a fully interactive document alongside a (static) PDF. The text and numbers in the PDF have been subject to external assurance and the PDF, therefore, takes precedence in case of discrepancies.
The management summary, that comprises the sections Executive Board highlights, lessons learned
and outlook, Our Purpose and Strategy, About Deloitte, Report of the Supervisory Board, and Risk Management, zooms in on our strategy, our (business) performance and value creation. The detailed financial performance can be found in the financial statements in Annex 1. In the Sustainability statement in Annex 2, we detail our approach towards, and progress on, the sustainability matters that we deem material to our business and the value chain. The Management summary and the Sustainability statement jointly serve as the Management report as prescribed by the Dutch Civil Code ('BW')
We believe in an open and transparent dialogue and relationship with our stakeholders. By sharing this Report, we want to inform you as to how we create stakeholder value through the execution of our strategy and fulfilment of our purpose – to make an impact that matters. As always, we appreciate and welcome your feedback: it enables us to further improve our impact and related reporting in the years ahead.
