KPMG buys human rights consultancy Banarra as social risks to business add up "Human rights is a significant concern in boardrooms today," KPMG chief executive Gary Wingrove said. KPMG Australia has acquired Richard Boele's human rights consultancy, Banarra, signalling the extent to which social risks are blind-siding company directors.

The growth strategies of most Australian listed companies are in export markets, like Asia, which have inherently complex social contexts, according to Mr Boele.
