Transparency Report 2025
At BDO Malta, we are well-positioned to navigate the rapidly evolving regulatory and risk landscape – this is what our clients expect of their key partners and advisors such as BDO. We remain mindful of our heritage as we pivot into our future by evolving our processes, our tools and our mindset to address new challenges and capture opportunities as these emerge.
BDO Malta leads with purpose and this year’s report reflects how we are delivering on our commitment to quality, integrity and innovation while staying true to our purpose: people helping people. Our firm has continued to expand its capabilities to ensure that we can continue supporting our clients’ growth. Managing risks effectively remains an important pillar for any client aspiring to achieve further business prosperity.
During the year under review, BDO Malta recorded a steady fee income of €11.9 million, a reflection of both the demand for our expertise and the confidence that organisations place in our ability to deliver value. Beyond fee revenue performance, our success is measured by our purpose of helping our clients succeed, the respect we show to our people and our planet.
A key priority has been equipping our professionals with digital tools and training to support our clients in overcoming regulatory and operational challenges. In this context, BDO Malta became the first audit and advisory firm in Europe to deploy Fieldguide – a US based AI-powered risk advisory tool for internal audit services. This is a significant investment which brings AI tooling to our engagement teams, standardisation in our processes, a better customer experience and a focus on risks that truly matter to our clients instead of repetitive ticking of checklists. We have since assisted other BDO Member Firms within the European region to successfully deploy the tool within their operations.
Throughout the period under review, Chris Scicluna was appointed as Chief Operations Officer where he focuses on business operations and growth. Chris excels in driving operational clarity and strategic initiatives across the firm, as well as capturing new opportunities. The addition of this new role within our organisational structure will provide BDO Malta with additional momentum to thrust forward with impact.
Quality remains the foundation of everything we do. Our annual Audit Quality Award allows us to recognise excellence within our audit teams. As part of this commitment, Edward Bugeja was promoted to Associate Audit Director in January 2025 and subsequently, Audit Director to lead engagement teams in the provision of audit services. Since he joined BDO Malta in 2019, he has been involved in audits of various types of entities ranging from small local entities to large, listed entities including various financial services firms and banks.
In addition to this, in 2025, Audrey Azzopardi joined as Director - Direct Tax where she leads a team of compliance specialists, international tax and transfer pricing subject matter experts. We remain dedicated to helping clients manage risk, regulatory and fiscal compliance, and financial reporting. Our multidisciplinary teams provide guidance across various industries, supporting organisations in meeting their obligations efficiently and effectively.
Our participation at events like ICE, SiGMA, Money 20/20, Governance, Risk, Compliance, and ESG Conference (GRC), Finance Malta events in Malta and abroad, provided a platform which reinforced the importance of collaboration, knowledge-sharing, and practical insights to support organisations in achieving their objectives.
Driven to be the Best – with a razor-sharp focus on the needs of our clients, whilst upholding the highest standards of integrity and accountability. The challenges of today are the opportunities of tomorrow and we embrace the future with confidence. At BDO Malta, our business and our people remain resilient and agile in a rapidly evolving world. Through investment, a continuous improvement mindset, and a culture with ethics at its heart, we’re excited for what we can achieve over the next year and how we can make a difference to our clients, colleagues and communities. We extend our appreciation to our clients, partners, and professionals for their collaboration and dedication. The year ahead presents both challenges and opportunities, and we look forward to continuing to provide value-driven solutions to the organisations we serve.
