Our Purpose statement is a clear and compelling declaration of why
we exist. It says:
Deloitte makes an impact that matters.
Our desire to make a positive, enduring impact every day for our
organization and its stakeholders requires that:
• We serve clients with quality and distinction, making a
measurable and attributable impact.
• We inspire our people to deliver value—mentoring and
developing future leaders and colleagues for life.
• We contribute to society, building confidence and trust,
upholding integrity, and supporting the community.
• We lead the profession by challenging ourselves to do what
matters most, delivering innovative ideas that reflect our
unique capabilities.
With a defined Purpose to lead us, Deloitte acts with courage
and conviction to make an impact that matters every day—across
our businesses and around the world—by serving the most
sophisticated clients, tackling the world’s most complex problems,
and promoting integrity and trust in the marketplace.
This is what we do. This is who we are. This is our Purpose.

Deloitte has long been a purpose-led organization.
In 2015, we put that Purpose into words to inspire
Deloitte professionals and help us achieve our global
strategy of being the undisputed global leader in
professional services.
A strong sense of purpose is closely linked to positive
organizational performance, as demonstrated in the
Deloitte US “Core beliefs and culture survey” and
DTTL 2015 Millennial Survey.

and Chairman of the Board letter
Making an impact that matters
Exceptional organizations that flourish over time are
defined by a purpose, and Deloitte’s purpose is to
make an impact that matters—for member firm clients,
our people, and society. This purpose is embedded
throughout our global network. It defines who we
are. It lies at the heart of the work of our network’s
225,400 people across more than 150 countries.
Living our purpose is also at the foundation of the Deloitte
network’s strong FY2015 performance.
Despite global
economic and geopolitical challenges, Deloitte achieved
aggregate global revenues of US$35.2 billion, representing
growth of 7.6 percent in local currency terms. Deloitte
hired approximately 62,000 new professionals last year
and invested more than US$200 million in community and
societal impact initiatives around the world.
Deloitte professionals take great pride in the many ways
the organization serves stakeholders around the world,
and our 12th Global Report highlights some of the best
examples from the past year through the lens of clients,
talent, and society.
Delivering service that matters
Deloitte member firms serve clients and markets with
quality and distinction, bringing trust and confidence to
the capital markets, delivering innovative insights, solving
complex challenges, and unlocking sustainable growth.
Member firms strive to be the first choice of clients—
whether they need confidence to take decisive action;
4
Building careers that matter
Deloitte member firms invest in their talented
professionals so they may deliver outstanding value to
clients. We mentor and develop future leaders, providing
an exceptional career experience and an inclusive,
collaborative culture.
Our network aims to be the premier
career destination for the best and brightest minds.
Having influence that matters
Deloitte contributes to society, building confidence
and trust in the markets, fostering the integrity of
organizations, and supporting our communities. Our
organization remains committed to sustainability and to
supporting the U.N. Global Compact.
We aspire to be
a role model of quality, integrity, and positive change,
helping to solve the toughest global challenges.
In all we do, Deloitte aspires to be not necessarily the
biggest, but the best—the undisputed global leader in
professional services. Our network continues to leverage
global scale, new technologies, and deep industry insights
to help member firm clients maximize opportunities and
manage risks in a borderless and uncertain environment.
We begin our respective terms this year—as Deloitte
Global Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the
Deloitte Global Board of Directors—honored to support
our member firm colleagues around the world as they
build on the Deloitte network’s rich heritage of serving
member firm clients, our people, and our communities.
Sincerely,
Punit Renjen, Deloitte Global
Chief Executive Officer
David Cruickshank, Chairman
of the Deloitte Global Board

Strategy, outlook, and acquisitions
Business choices aim to separate
Deloitte from the pack
Deloitte’s aspiration is to be the undisputed global leader in
professional services. This means being the first choice for
clients; being the premier career destination for top talent;
being a role model of quality, integrity, and positive change;
and helping solve the toughest global challenges. We are
intent on being the best, not necessarily the biggest.
Within the context of our Purpose—making an
impact that matters—five strategic business priorities
define our path forward: client leadership, business
leadership, geographic leadership, talent leadership,
and network leadership.
Deloitte’s strategy is all about strengthening our
businesses, empowering our talent, and backing them
with an exceptional network to serve the world’s most
important organizations. We are executing these choices
with passion and rigor against an ever-evolving external
backdrop that continues to challenge Deloitte and our
competitors in each of our businesses.
Guided by past strategic choices, Deloitte has thrived in the
midst of economic adversity and dramatic market changes.
Deloitte is confident our current strategy and Purpose-led
approach position the organization to accelerate its success
and achieve its goal of undisputed leadership.
Learn more about Deloitte’s strategic choices
and the external disruptions that shape them.
New leaders establish a path forward
Network governance approach
reinforces commitment to quality
and integrity
Punit Renjen became Deloitte Global Chief Executive
Officer on 1 June 2015, succeeding Barry Salzberg.
Renjen served most recently as chairman of the board,
Deloitte LLP (US), and prior to that, chairman and CEO of
Deloitte Consulting LLP.
Also on 1 June 2015, David Cruickshank began his term as
Chairman of the DTTL Board, succeeding Steve Almond.
Cruickshank had served as Chairman of Deloitte UK
since 2007.
Prior to that, he led the UK member firm’s
tax practice.
Renjen’s and Cruickshank’s leadership appointments
are part of a rigorous, comprehensive nomination and
member firm partner-ratification process that occurs every
four years and includes all member firms of the Deloitte
worldwide network.
During FY2015, Cathy Engelbert assumed the role of CEO
for Deloitte US, and Cindy Hook was elected Deloitte
Australia’s new chief executive. Each became the first
woman in her country’s history to lead a Big Four firm.
Strong governance and leadership structures help Deloitte
member firms maintain high levels of quality and integrity,
allowing them to sustain the trust of their clients, their
people, the capital markets, and the public.

Deloitte network structure
Local knowledge, global capabilities
The Deloitte member firm structure is a source of great
strength for the organization, allowing us to deliver deep
local market knowledge, capabilities, and relationships to
global clients, virtually anywhere in the world.
Deloitte member firms are independent, with local
ownership and management that are accountable for
their member firms’ success. As members of the Deloitte
network, these firms benefit from shared activities,
investments, and resources that enhance their individual
abilities to provide core services to key local and global
clients.
They also are able to leverage Deloitte’s brand,
eminence, and intellectual property.
The Deloitte organization continues to reinforce this
differentiating structure and achieve economies of scale
with new centers of excellence, global delivery centers,
and other network approaches that are designed to
deliver a consistent level of excellence around the world.
The network also is adopting new models for sharing
leading practices, technologies, back-office investments,
and costs.

Delivering
service that
matters
We serve clients with quality and distinction, making a
measurable and attributable impact.
Deloitte is a strong, global brand. Our member firms have
relationships with four out of every five Fortune Global 500®
companies. That includes 92 percent of all technology, media, and
communications companies, and 87 percent of the world’s financial
service and consumer business companies. Member firm clients
know us, trust us, and express extremely high satisfaction with the
service they receive.
Many would call that “success.” We call it “a
good place to start.”
Deloitte wants to be potential clients’ first choice when they’re
looking for an auditor’s auditor; when they need the confidence to
take decisive action and achieve transformative results; when they
require deep knowledge on complex tax issues; when they are facing
a bet-the-company challenge.
To ensure their global clients receive consistent, high-quality,
distinctive, world-class service wherever in the world they want
it, Deloitte member firms are investing in and strengthening our
network by:
• Equipping lead client service partners with the resources and
authority they need to succeed;
• Deepening our insight into industries and sectors to bring
valuable and actionable perspectives to bear on clients’ business
challenges; and
• Promoting “hyper collaboration” among our businesses and
member firms so that Deloitte’s multidisciplinary model delivers
exceptional results.

Artificial intelligence, real results
Cognitive computing capabilities
can help member firm clients make
smarter, faster choices
How can cognitive computing be used to benefit member
firm clients and our network? A software application
developed by the Deloitte US Innovation group, in
close collaboration with the Audit and Consulting M&A
practices of Deloitte US, already is helping organizations
save time and money. Yet, to those who dream the
future, it may be but an early step in a long journey.
“We’re at the beginning of a true paradigm shift. Instead
of merely querying structured data, we are demanding
insights from unstructured data that will inform decision
making,” says Forrest Danson, Deloitte US Principal and
Analytics Integrated Market Offering Leader. “Deloitte
US is among the vanguard in this arena because we
understand how artificial intelligence (AI) and human knowhow can combine to achieve better outcomes for clients.”
Many third parties are developing cognitive computing
and AI solutions.
Deloitte US is working with several of
these developers, including IBM. Its cognitive system,
Watson, currently provides a comprehensive cognitive
computing platform—one that is specifically designed
to support the development of a broad range of
enterprise solutions.

computing as a positive disruptor.

High-voltage expansion
Cybersecurity is a team sport
State Grid’s landmark acquisitions send Former public-sector professionals
a jolt through global electricity industry help clients integrate resilience
This past year, Deloitte China was engaged by State
Grid Corporation of China (SGCC)—the seventh largest
company in the Fortune Global 500®—to provide a
suite of advisory services—including financial and tax
due diligence, valuation and structuring services, and
negotiation support—to inform and facilitate SGCC’s
purchase of a 35 percent stake in an Italian energy
company, CDP Reti, from Cassa Depositi e Prestiti (CDP).
A year earlier, Deloitte China provided similar support
for the purchase of a 19.9 percent stake in Australian
electricity supplier SP AusNet, as well as SGCC’s purchase
of 60 percent of SPI Australia’s energy infrastructure.
“These transactions demonstrate the impact and value of
Deloitte’s multidisciplinary model, our cross-border reach,
and our knowledge of the energy and resources industry,”
says Eric Leung, Southern Region Functional Leader of
Financial Advisory Services, Deloitte China. “We not only
are well positioned to meet the complex needs of large
organizations such as State Grid, but we also have a solid
track record of helping Chinese companies achieve the
foreign expansion they desire.”
Learn more about the impact of Deloitte’s global
reach and multidisciplinary model.
Cybersecurity has become a strategically important
business risk issue, and companies need to be “secure,
vigilant, and resilient” to effectively manage risks.
“Our
Cyber Risk Services professionals are dedicated to helping
organizations protect information assets, be aware of the
rapidly evolving threat landscape, and respond to and
recover from incidents that are becoming increasingly
inevitable,” says Ted DeZabala, Deloitte Global Cyber Risk
Services leader.
How damaging breaches become can depend, in part, on
how rapidly the situation can be analyzed, how decisively
leaders take action, and how effectively teams interact
with customers, media, legal counsel, law enforcement,
and industry peers.
Deloitte understands cyber breaches aren’t just a
technologist’s problem. Our approach is designed to
prepare and validate an organization’s overall cyber
resilience from the boardroom, to the war room, to the
individual employee, to the organization’s stakeholders and
customers. When Cyber Risk Services tailors wargames for
clients—which are customized to each client’s industry and
build in probable scenarios, drawn from real-life experiences
and client situations—the entire client organization
is brought to the table and their response plans and
communications channels are tested aggressively.

Biggest implementation ever? No
problem!
Hewlett-Packard human capital project
is one for the record books
Hewlett-Packard’s (HP) human resources team wanted
to foster a culture of self-service among its 300,000plus employees and managers, but there was a problem.
The global technology giant had a dated and highly
customized legacy human capital management (HCM)
platform that was so unwieldy, some critical human
resource processes were actually handled offline because
it was simply easier that way. What’s more, because
HP operated in 106 countries, its HR department was
forced to juggle a multitude of regional laws and
customs.
Since HP’s HCM services were not configured to
support regional needs, many employees and managers
maintained shadow systems. The cumulative result was
poor data integrity and rampant management issues.
A new, cloud-based HCM system provided by software
vendor Workday, Inc., offered what HP was seeking to
support: the re-engineering of its business processes, but
HP knew the implementation would be tremendously
complex. So, HP turned to longtime service provider
Deloitte US for help.
Together, HP and Deloitte US
successfully executed the world’s fastest, biggest, and
most complex Workday implementation in just 15 months.

Workday HR and Finance consulting services.

Transforming Lundin’s Shelf interests
Deloitte Norway helps oil explorer
build a platform for growth
Advancements of cognitive technologies, including
artificial intelligence, are presenting new opportunities to
enhance audit quality, automate processes, and ultimately
transform how an audit is performed. “Natural-language
processing, advanced data analytics, and machinelearning technologies are examples of how we are
automating and streamlining labor-intensive processes,”
explains Jon Raphael, Audit Chief Innovation Officer,
Deloitte US. “This provides more opportunities to allocate
time to higher value-added areas, enabling auditors
to apply their professional judgment and uncover new
insights to deliver value beyond compliance.”
Three years after it was founded, Lundin Norway struck oil
in its first exploration well on the Norwegian continental
shelf. In the eight years since then, Lundin can take credit
for half of the resources found on the shelf.
Its stunning
success rate and growing resource base fueled an idea
among the company’s leaders, who recognized an
opportunity to blossom into a full-scale exploration and
production company.
Deloitte is actively enabling widespread and consistent use
of audit innovations among its member firms to enhance
both audit quality and consistency in engagements, create
effectiveness for audit practitioners, and provide clients
with the deeper understanding they want and expect.
Businesses can expect a value-destroying catastrophe
once every five years. Not only are the frequency
and magnitude of crises increasing, but the array of
emergencies also continues to expand and evolve.
Research shows that companies that have navigated
effectively through crises before are best equipped to
lead when disaster strikes next, embarking more quickly
on a strategic plan to regain control. “When the moment
arrives, experience matters,” says Peter Dent, Deloitte
Global Crisis Management Leader.
“If a company doesn’t
have it, there is tremendous value in teaming up with
a leader like Deloitte.” With decades of crisis-fighting
experience, Deloitte member firm professionals have
played a crucial role helping clients over the years prepare
for, respond to, and recover from their darkest hours.
“Our focus on innovation has produced a more exciting
work environment, one that is engaging tech-savvy
millennials. They relish the challenge of using technology
to solve problems and reinvent processes,” adds Chris
Thatcher, Deloitte Global Audit Innovation Leader. “Just as
importantly, they bring fresh perspectives to a traditional
field and add value that member firm clients maybe didn’t
expect, but really appreciate.”
This support was amplified in FY2015 when Deloitte
collected its crisis specialists from across the globe into
a multidisciplinary market offering.
“By creating a closeknit community of crisis management specialists in nearly
150 countries across our member firm network, Deloitte
can more easily provide end-to-end business support
before, during, and after a crisis with the industry-specific
and functional skills needed in each case,” explains Rhoda
Woo, Enterprise Risk Management director and crisis
management leader, Deloitte US.

attracting young professionals.

Lundin management turned to Deloitte Norway for
guidance in building its offshore operations organization.
“We had the industry knowledge they needed, along with
Deloitte Norway personnel who have years of operational
experience on the shelf,” says Svenn Erik Edal, Nordic Oil
& Gas Industry leader, Deloitte Norway. “We also had
done similar work with other operations, developed a
methodology based on leading practices, and offered
Lundin new ways of thinking to help ensure a culture with
strict focus on continuous improvement.”
The Deloitte Norway team was immersed in all phases
of the process, from helping Lundin identify regulatory
requirements and analyze occupational risks to developing
workflows and key performance indicators. Lundin’s first
manned offshore facility is projected to begin producing
its first barrels of crude oil in late 2015.

Just what the doctor ordered
Deloitte Ireland-aided restructuring
program key to client’s turnaround,
growth
In 2011, the combination of loan debt and high overhead
was making it difficult for Uniphar Group, a leading
provider within the pharmaceutical and health care sector
in Ireland, to capitalize on growth opportunities.
Just three
years later, against a challenging economic backdrop, its
annual revenues increased almost 60 percent, earnings
were up 75 percent, and debt decreased by about a third.
It also completed a major acquisition and initiated an SAP
implementation across the organization.
Along the way, Deloitte Ireland has played a key role
in Uniphar’s resurgence. “Our corporate finance team
was hired in 2011 by two Irish banks to complete an
extensive review of Uniphar’s financial health and assist
with negotiating a restructuring of the company’s existing
loans to harness growth opportunities in the market,”
explains David Carson, Deloitte Ireland’s lead client
service partner for Uniphar. “By 2013, those banks were
willing to fund Uniphar’s US$54.3 million acquisition of
pharmaceutical wholesaler Cahill May Roberts (CMR).
That
speaks volumes about the progress Uniphar made and the
trust the banks had in its management team.” Deloitte
Ireland corporate finance provided due diligence services
on the acquisition.

and Deloitte Ireland’s role in it.

Guarding client confidentiality
Advanced measures let Deloitte
combat cybercriminals, protect data
Deloitte Digital in the UK has been working with clients to
establish real-time analytics tools that give traffic managers
the information they need to keep traffic moving. These
tools are built to understand dynamic changes in traffic
flows by mode. With the information they provide, traffic
managers can make timely interventions to improve journey
time reliability and alleviate congestion.
A number of high-visibility cyberattacks on well-known
global companies in FY2015 not only resulted in the
very public dissemination of personal and confidential
information, but they also served as reminders to Deloitte
that data security begins at home.
These tools build on current sensor capability provided by
cameras, counter sites, and strategically placed adaptive
traffic control system loops. Data from millions of vehicle
captures per day is processed continuously to provide
a holistic view of the traffic network.
Data also can be
compared with vehicle databases, providing new insights
into vehicle journeys.
Similar technologies are helping auto insurers adopt
usage-based insurance (UBI) that more closely aligns
premium rates with driving behaviors. With D-rive, a
telematics services business developed primarily by
Deloitte US, smaller insurers have access to a tremendous
amount of information they can use to determine
discounts and provide value-added services. This allows
them to get in the UBI game quickly and cost effectively,
and helps level the field so they’re not crowded out of the
market.
In pilot programs, D-rive is even helping people
drive more safely.

DTTL’s global policy on information security requires
member firms to institute a wide range of security
measures, covering areas such as virus protection, data
backup and recovery, encryption, password authentication,
access to systems, and network security. These actions are
critical to safeguarding and appropriately using confidential
information, confronting ongoing threats, and meeting
member firm client expectations.
Confidentiality is an ongoing, evergreen process that must
be done in a holistic way; an accountwide transformation
that enhances member firms’ ability to deliver seamless,
global client service.
To this end, DTTL currently is rolling out a Confidential
Information (CI) program to its member firms around the
globe. It is a strategic initiative, driven by network leading
practices and consistent standards, aimed at safeguarding
confidential information at the client account and
engagement levels.

Acting ahead of change
Risk-intelligent approach promotes
delivery of consistent, high-quality
client services
Making waves in water stewardship
Tailored tool helps Smurfit Kappa
assess and mitigate risks from water
scarcity
In a world dominated by rapidly evolving technology,
converging industries, and a shifting regulatory landscape,
we must be smart, agile, resilient, and forward-thinking to
confidently confront risk, pursue opportunities, and gain
competitive advantage.
Deloitte continuously assesses the
adequacy of its risk management processes and programs
to proactively address matters that may arise from the
internal and external environment, and promotes a
lessons-learned culture where professionals can learn
from each other’s experiences.
Water is an important resource input in the pulp and
paper industry. Given the increasing importance of water
globally, companies are now developing strategies to
manage this precious resource.
To this end, during FY2015, we developed a new network
quality and risk management strategy. This strategy
will continue to reinforce our quality and risk-intelligent
culture, one of relentless commitment to Deloitte’s own
core and ethical values and the public interest.
Deloitte also has developed and implemented an
enterprise risk framework designed to identify, manage,
monitor, and respond to risks which, if materialized,
could impact our ability to achieve our strategies and
objectives—including the protection of our reputation
and brand, and member firms’ delivery of consistent,
high-quality services.
Learn more about how Deloitte is sustaining a
risk-intelligent culture.
One of the organizations focused on addressing water
related risks is Smurfit Kappa, Europe’s leading corrugated
packaging company and one of the leading providers of
paper-based packaging solutions in the world.
“Smurfit
Kappa, and companies like it, are seeking to implement
water stewardship strategies to evaluate operational risks
and costs associated with disruptions to their water supplies
and to identify actions to mitigate these risks,” says Olivier
Jan, partner, Deloitte France, Sustainability Services.
In May 2014, the manufacturer approached Deloitte
France to conduct a water-related risk assessment across
Smurfit Kappa’s global industrial operations throughout
FY2015. In the first phase of the project, 36 Smurfit
Kappa mills were screened for water-related risks using
traditional tools and methods. In the second phase—
where the scope is limited to mills which present a
significant potential risk of water availability—on-site
assessments are being performed using a tool built and
owned by Deloitte France that is designed specifically for
Smurfit Kappa to use for its mills.
Learn more about how Deloitte France is helping
Smurfit Kappa assess its water-related risk.

At Deloitte, we have made the development of inspirational, worldclass leaders, at all levels, the cornerstone of our global talent
strategy. Our vision is to develop purpose-led leaders who are
deeply committed to the ideal of making an impact that matters—
with member firm clients, their colleagues, their communities,
and in our profession.

To achieve our vision, the Deloitte network continues to make
significant investments in the design and delivery of an inclusive,
world-class learning experience. Through Deloitte University, we
provide enriching experiences for Deloitte people and create a place
where leaders thrive and ideas prosper.
Deloitte encourages its people to take on experiences in new
markets or service areas to expand their expertise and leadership
skills. These diverse experiences not only enhance the quality and
consistency of clients’ experiences with Deloitte, but they also
reinforce the inclusive and collaborative culture that allows our
professionals to succeed.
Deloitte’s leaders are driven to unlock people’s potential through
mentorship, lifelong learning, and flexible work and career solutions
that meet the changing needs of Deloitte’s businesses and people.
They are dedicated to creating truly distinctive client and talent

Helping purpose-driven talent thrive
An inclusive talent experience that
“You can change the world and have
appeals to both the head and the heart a business career”
Protecting professionals near and far
From insurgency to medical urgency,
Deloitte Global Security measures up
The Deloitte network is committed to helping its people
reach their full leadership potential—confident that
their professional experiences will spark innovations that
motivate others. New ideas are valued across Deloitte’s
member firms; the best ones are funded, cultivated, and
allowed to mature.
The primary focus of the DTTL Global Security Office
(GSO) is to work with member firms to keep Deloitte
people safe, particularly during times of emergency or
when they are called upon by clients to work in higher-risk
areas. A comprehensive program has been put in place to
address ever-present threats around the globe.
“Deloitte people aspire to make an impact that
matters, and in return, they expect opportunities to
build leadership capabilities, develop new skills, and be
challenged each and every day,” says Margot Thom,
Deloitte Global Managing Director, Talent. “Our innovative
and flexible learning approaches span from the Deloitte
University (DU) classrooms to the daily work experience.
By promoting a culture of continual learning, Deloitte
enables its professionals to up their games in delivering
outstanding value to their clients.”
During FY2015, close to 65,000 Deloitte professionals
across the regions experienced Deloitte University, and
more than 2,000 member firm partners, principals, and
directors led DU programs.
Member firms also have
formalized mobility and international experience programs
that expose their professionals to new ideas and cultures
while they serve the needs of global clients. During
FY2015, more than 6,000 Deloitte professionals gained
diverse, on-the-job experience through short- and longterm mobility assignments and global client projects.

A “sense of purpose” is part of the reason six in 10 young
professionals chose to join their current employers,
according to DTTL’s 2015 Millennial survey. And
they’re not alone; Gen Xers and veteran talent also are
increasingly seeking opportunities to make an impact on
the world around them both through the work they do
and endeavors outside the office.
One such career calling is cybersecurity.
Many young
job seekers see the havoc wreaked on society by cyberbased terrorism, computer intrusions, and cyber fraud,
and decide they can make an impact that matters for
consumers, economies, and even national security.
For those who want to have even more direct involvement
in social-impact activities, Deloitte member firms have
long histories of offering professionals the ability to mix
paid and pro bono assignments, be “seconded” to notfor-profits, take sabbaticals to help at social enterprises,
and perform other skill-based volunteering. Networkwide,
during FY2015, Deloitte professionals dedicated more
than 340,000 hours to pro bono assignments and more
than 820,000 hours to volunteering.
Learn more about what attracts purpose-driven
professionals to Deloitte.
On an average day, Deloitte member firms may have
more than 20,000 people traveling to serve clients. The
GSO provided guidance and security planning support
in FY2015 to more than 912 member firm engagement
teams considering work in potentially troublesome areas
of the world.
As part of DTTL’s global travel security
protocols, member firms are encouraged to incorporate
security into their travel programs and consult with the
GSO before undertaking travel to high-risk locations.
During the past year, the GSO continued efforts to further
integrate its regional security managers through member
firm visits, meetings with country leaders, and the
formation of local security councils made up of member
firm security officers in each region.

also what is good for our people and the communities in which we
live and work—always striving to be an organization that is held up
as a role model of quality, integrity, and positive change.

the integrity of the financial reporting process and preserving the
public’s trust in our capital markets. Deloitte’s consulting services offer
innovative solutions that help businesses thrive, which is essential for
a healthy, vibrant economy and society. Through these and other
services, member firm professionals help their clients successfully

Investing in post-disaster innovation
Reaching out with purpose
Promise of economic resurgence drives Deloitte professionals’ business skills
Deloitte Japan’s social mission
elevate global humanitarian efforts
A step in the right direction
Deloitte tackles youth unemployment
by scaling innovative education ideas
In March 2011, three connected disasters devastated the
world’s third-largest economy, resulting in a recovery
bill that could reach US$250 billion or more. Twenty
prefectures in Japan took a direct hit from the 2011 Great
East Japan Earthquake, tsunami, and Fukushima Daiichi
nuclear accident. But, the economic impact of the triple
disaster was borne—and is still being felt—throughout
the country.
There are 75 million unemployed young people in the
world, and the economic and social costs of this are
immense. So, since 2009, Deloitte has been committed
to identifying and investing in innovative solutions that
enhance access to education and employability.
Deloitte Japan, which played a broad and active
humanitarian role in the wake of the disasters, continues
to provide revival and restoration support for its clients
and pro bono services in disaster-affected areas.
But, the
firm’s focus has expanded to recognize the broader need
to rebuild a national economy crippled by those events.
“We want to do more than simply help disaster-affected
areas recover. Our goal is to help create a nationwide
economic rebirth by nurturing innovation,” says Masatoshi
Tanifuji, leader of the Deloitte Japan Reconstruction
Support Team.
The assistance Deloitte Japan’s subsidiary, Tohmatsu
Venture Support (TVS), offers entrepreneurs and new
startups is an example of this commitment. To date, TVS
has helped more than 2,000 startups not only achieve
success, but also contribute to a local and national revival.
Some startups already have crossed into global markets.
Learn more about how Deloitte Japan is promoting
economic recovery in its country.

The South Pacific and Syria are separated by
16,000 kilometers and a long list of physical and social
contrasts.
But, they have at least one thing in common—
humanitarian needs that require innovative solutions. In
the South Pacific, more frequent and intense cyclones are
the culprit, disrupting livelihoods and upsetting a fragile
infrastructure. In Syria, armed conflict is driving families
from their homes to other parts of the nation and to
neighboring countries in search of safe haven.
Deloitte professionals are providing support in both crisis
situations.
Deloitte New Zealand is working with Oxfam
New Zealand (Oxfam NZ) to co-create innovative solutions
to deliver post-cyclone relief to multiple countries in the
Pacific region while Deloitte Middle East is supporting
Syrian refugee response.
Elsewhere, following the Ebola outbreak in West Africa,
DTTL made a significant donation to the U.N. secretarygeneral’s Ebola Multi-Partner Trust Fund, which directed
support toward the greatest identified needs of the
United Nations Mission for Ebola Emergency Response
(UNMEER). DTTL and Deloitte member firms also donated
more than US$760,000 to charitable organizations
working on relief efforts in the wake of the 25 April
tremor that ravaged Nepal and parts of northern India.
Learn more about Deloitte’s humanitarian initiatives.
In FY2015, Deloitte contributed more than 380,000 hours
to education and skills activities, reaching more than
390,000 young people.
“The core capability we bring to
the table is the ability to scale solutions. This is how Deloitte
member firms can make the greatest impact,” says David
Pearson, Deloitte Global Chief Sustainability Officer. “We
search the globe for great ideas, then we use Deloitte
resources and relationships to help expand those ideas and
drive outcomes that reach the most people possible.”
The Deloitte US RightStep™ Innovation Prize, the
Social Innovation Pioneers program at Deloitte UK,
and the Deloitte China Hubei Hope School Project are
three successful initiatives that demonstrate what can
be achieved by working with innovative education
organizations to scale imaginative solutions.

The edge of tomorrow
Deloitte Netherlands’ showplace
hailed as the world’s greenest office
building
The Edge is billed as the world’s most sustainable office
building and has the certification to prove it.
But, it’s
more than that. The place is, well, fun. And interesting.
And inviting.
So much so that professionals are actually
applying for employment with Deloitte Netherlands
because they want to work in the building. That it has
become a recruiting tool is a satisfying side effect of a
project designed to both redefine efficiency and change
the way people work.
The innovative, connected lighting panels contain about
28,000 sensors that detect motion, light, temperature,
humidity, and even carbon dioxide levels. It’s these
sensors, providing real-time data, which make The Edge
possibly the smartest and most occupant-friendly office
space in use today.
The sensors allow facility managers
to assess how and when certain parts of the building are
being used; and allow tenants—using a phone app—to
control the brightness of the lighting above their work
surfaces, adjust the climate of their particular areas, and
find their way around the building.
Upon its completion in late 2014, The Edge was
awarded the highest BREEAM accreditation score ever—
98.36 percent—by the Building Research Establishment
(BRE), the global assessor of sustainable buildings.

benefit both business and society
Ethics
Our network’s purpose-driven pursuit
of quality and integrity
Independence
Preserving the public’s trust
Reporting process and materiality
The report illustrates the many ways
Deloitte makes an impact that matters
Deloitte actively participates in dynamic regulatory
discussions around the world, proactively contributing to
the regulatory dialogue, promoting investor confidence,
and emphasizing cross-border consistency. One of
Deloitte’s focuses remains on audit and audit quality.
Deloitte leaders continue to collaborate with relevant
stakeholders, including regulators and policymakers, on
current hot topics that include audit of the future, audit
quality indicators, auditor reporting, and strengthening
the role of the audit committees.
Respected organizations around the world trust Deloitte
professionals to execute their most ambitious projects,
manage highly confidential information, and develop
ideas and approaches that can alter the course of their
businesses. That trust has been and continues to be
earned thousands of times each day by Deloitte member
firm people.
For 170 years, objectivity and impartiality have been the
cornerstones upon which our network is built. Without
them, Deloitte could not cultivate confidence and trust
in the markets, nor could we uphold the integrity of
organizations.
Our very Purpose would be beyond our
reach. There can be no margin for error. That’s why every
Deloitte professional, from the newest assistant to the
most senior leader, must comply with well-established
policies and procedures to ensure his or her independence.
Regulators demand it.
Clients need it. The public expects
it. So, we deliver it.
The chief objective of the Global Report is to provide all
Deloitte stakeholders with a broad and balanced picture
of our network’s impact on society, our Purpose-driven
business activities, and the actions that exemplify our
aspiration to become the undisputed global leader in
professional services.
Standards for independence are shaped by legislation,
regulations, professional guidance, and public expectations.
Maintaining independence, therefore, is both a matter
of compliance with rules and regulations and a matter
of appearance.
• Are highly affected by what we do;
Deloitte member firms continue to strengthen their
engagement with government and political leaders—
contributing insights and experiences supporting
economic success, growth, resilience, and sustainability—to
help address long-term economic challenges.
For example,
Deloitte professionals have collaborated with the Business
and Industry Advisory Committee to Organization for
Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) on the
development of a women’s entrepreneurship report;
actively contributed to a number of B20 working groups,
including those of employment and anti-corruption;
worked with the UK and US governments to sponsor a
forum to address human trafficking; and are engaged in
discussions that support a pro-growth international trade
agenda fit for purpose, including via the Trade in Services
Agreement negotiations.
Learn more about Deloitte regulatory and public
policy engagement.

Ethical behavior among Deloitte professionals is nonnegotiable. That’s why DTTL Global Ethics and member
firm ethics teams continue to aggressively integrate ethics
into key initiatives and processes, stressing quality and
consistency of approach across the network.
During the past year, Deloitte enhanced its focus on anticorruption, appointing a DTTL anti-corruption officer and
member firm anti-corruption champions who will work
together to build and sustain effective programs. Deloitte
Global Ethics launched a new classroom-based ethics
training program for the network, and adapted its existing
new-manager training session into four short e-learning
modules for individuals whose travel schedules make
classroom training difficult.
DTTL and member firm ethics
leaders also developed a new package of measurement
and communication tools to gauge and improve the
effectiveness of the network’s local ethics programs.
Learn more about how Deloitte integrates ethics
throughout the network.
Deloitte member firms comply with well-established
policies and implement appropriate procedures to help
safeguard their objectivity and independence. These
policies and procedures help ensure member firms act in
the interests of both the public and their clients, as well
as protect our brand and reputation.
Learn more about the policies and procedures
Deloitte uses to help safeguard its objectivity
and independence.
We strive to address stakeholders’ interests and questions,
while explaining our motivations, priorities, and approaches.
We identify key stakeholders as those who:
• Help influence Deloitte’s success;
• Affect the markets, regulations, and industries in which
we operate; or
• Affect the supply of resources that we need to serve
our clients, talent, and society.
Deloitte professionals engage continuously with key
stakeholders, both internal and external. In FY2015,
this continuous engagement was supplemented with
a structured stakeholder engagement and materiality
assessment.

stakeholders, and material issues.
