  • Report
  • March 25, 2026

Verdantix, the independent research and advisory firm, named PwC a Global Leader in its report, Green Quadrant: Sustainability Consulting (2026). Verdantix states that “PwC’s sustainability services are business-integrated and commercially impactful.” 

The report states that PwC’s strengths include:

  • A pragmatic, business-led approach to sustainability. As sustainability moved from compliance to commercial value in 2024-2025, PwC moved faster than its peers to align its services to business triggers, framing sustainability in financial and operational terms. The firm invested heavily in upskilling its sustainability professionals to translate sustainability factors into measurable business outcomes, rapidly broadening its buyer base beyond chief sustainability officers (CSOs) to reach chief financial officers (CFOs), chief operating officers (COOs) and chief information officers (CIOs), and significantly increasing engagements where sustainability is embedded in broader transformation programmes.
  • End-to-end sustainability delivery offering for global firms, across sectors. PwC is best-suited to large, complex organizations seeking a long-term sustainability partner capable of integrated, enterprise-wide transformation across industries. The firm connects sustainability strategy, reporting and action to deliver measurable outcomes, using sustainability data as business data, to inform operational and investment decisions. Its extensive regional footprint – reflected in one of the most geographically diverse portfolios among its peers – supports consistent global delivery while accommodating local market realities, making PwC a strong choice for multinational organizations seeking scalable, commercially grounded sustainability solutions.

“We are thrilled to be named a Global Leader in Green Quadrant: Sustainability Consulting (2026) by Verdantix. To stay competitive, companies should embed sustainability across operations — not just to meet standards, but to create value. That means rethinking how capital is deployed, supply chains are structured, risks are measured and infrastructure is modernized — all while enabling smarter, faster decisions through data and technology. Embedding sustainability into strategy, operations and culture can create business value by guiding decarbonization, effectively allocating capital, reducing energy demand, strengthening supply chain resilience and mitigating risks.”
