Following the guiding principle of the “honorable businessman”, responsibility and commitment to our environment and the common good have always been deeply rooted core values of our enterprise.
For the second time, we are publishing our Sustainability Report in this comprehensive form, thus underlining our continuous striving for transparent and sustainable action.
To us, sustainability is more than a mere obligation: It is a guideline in order to actively and positively shape our future. Therefore, we continuously review our sustainability strategies and steer our commitment specifically along the three key areas of environment, social and governance (ESG). These three pillars are the foundation of our efforts to achieve and maintain particularly high ethical, social and ecological standards and take center stage in the 2024 Sustainability Report.
Our ESG strategy forms the basis for Baker Tilly’s responsible and sustainable business practices. We attach particular importance to ensuring that our management takes equal account of the needs of our employees, the environment, society and, naturally, our clients. We practice such approach on a daily basis and are committed to ensuring that our actions not only comply with the laws but also with our fundamental values.
In doing so, we never lose sight of our decisions’ long-term effects.
These reports are an expression of our intention to create transparency and openly communicate our progress and potential. For us, sustainable action is not just a goal, but an obligation we take seriously.
We invite you to use these Sustainability Reports to gain an impression of our efforts and look forward to exchanging ideas with you if you have any questions or comments on our statements.

The linchpin for our sustainability are our employees and our sustainable human resources management in order to ensure our company’s long-term success through healthy and happy employees as a central factor for Baker Tilly’s success in Germany: from joining our company to a successful career, which may even extend to partnership, right through to resigning, our goal is a reliable, employee-centered corporate culture characterized by a high level of social competence.
Diversity and work-life balance are key components of our HR culture.
For us and our clients, sustainability and the corresponding non-financial reporting should not only be seen as a compliance-related challenge, but also as an opportunity for a strategically anchored sustainable transformation that balances and harmonizes economic, ecological and social goals.
We ensure that all buildings are operated with as little energy as possible and are certified according to current standards.
For us as an auditing and consulting firm, compliance and quality management are key. We therefore work continuously to improve our processes and go far beyond merely meeting standards.
Outside of our company, we are committed to the common good with our Baker Tilly Foundation, which was established in 2018. True to the motto: “We take responsibility today for a better tomorrow!”, the Foundation primarily supports committed people, initiatives and projects in the area of child and youth welfare and promotes education and training.
At the same time, our sustainability expertise and experience are integrated into all our advisory and auditing services through our Sustainability Competence Center.

Our commitment at Baker Tilly in Germany in 2022 “Do good, but make sure others get to hear of it” – this famous German proverb dates back more than half a century but still holds true. Doing good has always been a central component of Baker Tilly’s corporate philosophy and for us it means above all taking responsibility. And yes: we also want you to write and talk about it – which is the very reason why we prepared this sustainability report. Only available in German.
Our annual sustainability reports cover the respective previous year. We thus provide comprehensive information about Baker Tilly's activities in Germany with the greatest possible transparency – with a particular focus on the areas of “Environment and Nature”, “People and Society” and “Compliance, Integrity and Trust”.
At the same time, these reports also reflect the key aspects of our sustainability strategy to date. More Information on our global network and the sustainable value contribution of individual member companies.
Admittedly, we are only at the beginning of a company-wide sustainability strategy and still need to continue to develop sustainably. The Baker Tilly Sustainability Report was therefore produced in this comprehensive form for the first time and will be published in future in purely electronic form on an annual basis.
