KPMG and Anthropic have signed a global alliance and launched KPMG Digital Gateway Powered by Claude, bringing Anthropic’s frontier AI directly into KPMG’s client delivery platform, with an initial focus on tax clients and private equity firms.

Agentic Workflows Built Into Client Delivery

By embedding Claude into Digital Gateway — KPMG’s AI-enabled platform — clients can build agentic workflows in real time to drive better outcomes across advisory, audit, and consulting engagements. The integration is designed to move beyond AI as a research assistant and into AI as an active participant in complex, multi-step professional workflows.

Across the alliance, KPMG and Anthropic will embed cybersecurity, risk, and AI assurance into how AI systems and tools are designed and operated, with teams finding and fixing vulnerabilities and protecting critical systems. All work is guided by the KPMG Trusted AI framework.

What the Alliance Means for APAC

For Singapore and the wider Asia Pacific region, where KPMG operates across financial services, government, and technology mandates, the Digital Gateway signals a shift toward AI-augmented delivery embedded in standard engagements. Enterprises engaging KPMG for digital transformation, regulatory compliance, or tax work are likely to encounter Claude-powered tooling as part of the firm’s standard delivery infrastructure.

The alliance also expands Anthropic’s enterprise distribution in the region through one of the Big Four’s largest professional networks, alongside similar moves by competitors aligned with OpenAI and Microsoft Copilot.

Scope and Governance

The global alliance framework spans KPMG member firms across regions and includes joint work on AI security and assurance. Anthropic’s Claude brings frontier model capabilities into an environment governed by KPMG’s enterprise risk and compliance standards — addressing a key concern among regulated-industry clients about the provenance and auditability of AI-generated outputs.
