Public policy

Deloitte participates in policy discussions on some of today’s most important socioeconomic challenges, seeking outcomes that serve the public interest. Deloitte Global’s Public Policy program engages meaningfully with policymakers and key influencers to make an impact that reinforces trust and confidence in the capital markets and promotes growth and opportunity for all.

Deloitte Global’s public policy program focuses its attention on priority topics shaping the debate, including: advocating for a corporate reporting ecosystem that’s safe, transparent and accountable; preparing tomorrow’s workforce and labor market for the jobs of the Fourth Industrial Revolution; informing the future of regulation in an era of exponential technological advancement; and supporting a more complete approach to measuring social progress.

The unique breadth of Deloitte’s businesses and the perspectives gained by working with clients, community programs and other key stakeholders—including investors, regulators and professional bodies—inform Deloitte’s voice and channel our efforts to foster dialogue for an inclusive, consistent and forward-looking public policy agenda.

Deloitte professionals help advance these issues by working with key stakeholders within country and supranational organizations, such as:

• Group of 20 (G20) and its engagement group, the Business 20 (B20);
• Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), including Business at OECD (BIAC);
• United Nations (UN);
• World Trade Organization (WTO);
• Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum (APEC); and
• The German Marshall Fund of the United States (GMF).

Deloitte Global’s Public Policy program is supported by member firm public policy programs active at both local and regional levels. This approach allows Deloitte to coordinate its public policy activities and positions across geographies and businesses, amplifying its impact and influence.
