16 novembro 2023 – A Mazars, empresa líder internacional em auditoria, tax e consultoria, e a FORVIS, a oitava maior firma do sector nos Estados Unidos, anunciam hoje, em conjunto, que irão criar uma network global que entrará diretamente no top 10, a partir de dia 1 de junho de 2024.
A nova network posicionará ambas as firmas para um crescimento global contínuo, expandindo as suas capacidades para melhor servir os seus clientes, especialmente aqueles com necessidades internacionais.
The network will operate under a single brand worldwide, Forvis Mazars. With approximately €4.7 billion (US$ 5 billion) in revenue, Forvis Mazars will enter the global top 10. Formed exclusively by just two members, the network is designed to be agile, offer consistency and have global scale to meet the needs of its clients. Both members of the network will continue to be owned by their current partners. As of June 1, 2024, Mazars USA will join Forvis Mazars in the USA.
"I am delighted that Mazars and FORVIS have taken this transformational step and am excited about the opportunities it presents for both firms in serving our clients and supporting our people," says Hervé Hélias, CEO of Mazars Group. "We are proud to bring a pioneering new networking model to our industry and are excited to continue this journey together. At Mazars, we are committed to helping our clients build and grow their businesses with confidence, and forming this two-firm network with FORVIS complements our existing integrated international partnership and significantly furthers Mazars' international strategy. We are proud to offer our clients the strength of our integrated international partnership in 100 countries and the benefits of FORVIS' large national partnership in the US, which really works as a single firm in the US. This provides us with the vast scale and presence we have been aiming for in the US and makes us a top 10 global network with broad scale and coverage."
"A network of two firms, operating under a single global brand, rapidly accelerates our firms' shared strategies. It's an opportunity to better serve our clients, especially those with an international presence, and to support our people on a path of continuous growth. Our organizations know each other well, have a strong history of collaboration and very similar cultures of always putting their people and clients first," says Tom Watson, CEO of FORVIS.
"FORVIS has always been fiercely committed to delivering an Unrivaled Customer Experience® and unlocking the potential of our customers and our people, and this opportunity gives us the ability to do so through a strengthened global platform."
Mazars, with offices in more than 100 countries and territories, has been very successful, gaining prominence and working with some of the world's most recognized brands. FORVIS has built on a 100-year legacy of delivering an Incomparable Customer Experience®, becoming a top 103 firm in the United States while aspiring to an expanded global platform. At a time of great change for companies around the world and shifting market dynamics, the new global network will be agile, with the scale, capacity and coverage to support the current and future needs of its clients around the world with the highest levels of consistency and customer experience.
