Are you reaching out to the world with your business, and is the world reaching back? With our global network, you can. We help you succeed in all of your markets—global or local.

Global is a fact of life today. So too are increasingly competitive, complex markets. Navigating it all from a business and tax perspective can be daunting. We understand that, and can help. As a member firm of Crowe Horwath International, one of the largest global professional services organizations and ninth among global accounting and management consulting associations, we can provide you with the global resources necessary to do business abroad. Set up a subsidiary. Buy a business abroad. Enter into joint ventures and global distributor arrangements. Or simply extend your reach to a new continent or region of the world. We have the depth of expertise to provide the specific tax, audit, accounting, and economic expertise required for domestic companies to succeed outside the U.S. and for foreign companies to achieve strong results here.

Through Crowe Horwath International, we leverage more than 140 independent member firms operating from 465 offices around the world. These member firms provide innovative business solutions in the areas of Assurance, Business Services, Consulting, Corporate Finance, Risk Management, Tax and Technology. They are driven by a single purpose — just as we are — to help you succeed in whichever markets you operate, on a global or local scale.

We believe the key to success with any of our international engagements is a combination of global vision and local market intelligence. GHP Horwath principals provide the leadership and a central point of contact for clients — and for working with Crowe Horwath International Member firms.
