Our 2022 Culture and Impact report gives you an insight into what it’s like to work for, with or alongside BDO.
This year’s Transparency Report covers the year ended 1 July 2022. Quality is our number one priority and, in this report, we share the actions we are undertaking to improve quality.
We seek to create an inclusive environment to attract and retain the best people regardless of gender, age, ethnicity or background. Our Gender and Ethnicity Pay Gap Reports are one of the ways we can quantify how we’re doing.
As well as our employee pay gap, we have looked at our equity partner and then our combined (partner + employee) pay gap to ensure we have a full view of the work we need to do to close the Gender and Ethnicity Pay Gaps.
This report provides our stakeholders with a comprehensive view of the organisation’s performance and action on environmental matters for the year ending 30 June 2022.
It provides performance highlights from 2021/22, comparative analysis and highlights of performance by emissions source.

Annual Report 2020
2020 has been a year unique to any other we have experienced. Our annual results for the year ended 30 June 2020 reflect just three months of the impact of COVID-19, and can be broken down into two distinct periods: pre-lockdown and lockdown.
The first nine months of the financial year (July 2019 – March 2020) showed strong growth for the firm, with BDO’s resolute focus on quality and client service combined with our Moore Stephens merger underpinning this success. The impact of COVID-19 and subsequent national lockdown, however, saw a reversal in this profitability. In the final three months of the financial year (April 2020 to June 2020), revenues and profits fell by 13% and 50% respectively year on year, equating to a £25m reduction in underlying business profits.
With further economic volatility on the horizon, lower levels of profitability look set to continue. However, as our pre-pandemic growth and post-pandemic resilience demonstrates, BDO is a business which has the fundamentals right. Our unwavering commitment to delivering world class services to our clients puts us in a strong position to weather the ongoing economic storm.
