Doha, Qatar: KPMG and Anthropic announced a global alliance, bringing Anthropic’s frontier AI directly into KPMG’s client delivery platform.

The alliance will initially focus on tax clients and private equity firms, enabling clients to build agentic workflows in real time to help drive better outcomes. KPMG will also embed Claude into its PE-focused product offerings, and the two organisations will co-develop new Claude-powered products for portfolio companies.

“At KPMG, we’re innovating and redefining how work gets done,” said Bill Thomas, Global Chairman and CEO, KPMG International. “This global alliance with Anthropic reflects our shared commitment to responsible AI, prioritizing security, trust, and governance as KPMG firms scale these capabilities to our clients and people around the world.”

“KPMG works in industries where accuracy, accountability, and trust aren’t optional, and they’re applying the same standard to AI. They’re rolling Claude out to 276,000 people across the business and using it for client work in tax and private equity."

"They’re also bringing it into cybersecurity, where it helps find and fix vulnerabilities. That’s what a firm-wide commitment to AI looks like, and we’re proud to be the partner they chose,” said Daniela Amodei, Co-founder and President of Anthropic.

“As organisations across Qatar move from AI experimentation to implementation, they need trusted partners who can help them adopt these technologies with confidence."

"This alliance with Anthropic together with our best-in-class global AI capabilities and teams strengthen our ability to support clients with advanced AI systems and use cases combined with the governance, sector insight, and practical expertise needed to drive real business value.” said Ahmed Abu-Sharkh, Country Senior Partner, KPMG in Qatar.

Claude Cowork and Managed Agents are integrated into KPMG’s global technology platform, built on Microsoft Azure, combining KPMG insights, proprietary tools, and client data in one environment.
