With an annual billing in excess of US$ 1.5 billion, the group is ranked amongst the 12th largest accounting  groups  globally. With  the  expansion in global business,  the initials  HLBI  represent  the  mission of the  network  which is
“ Helping Local Business Internationally ”. Through the HLB network, clients have access to professional advice world-wide.

Member firms meet strict membership criteria with quality being a key issue. Each member firm has built a strong reputation in its local market and projects a clear and common international identity combining local expertise with powerful international capacity.

The HLB Global Care approach supports clients wanting to expand their own territory as well as those operating internationally. Member firms follow strict quality control standards, uniform across the international network. The engagement partner in the home territory takes responsibility for the global aspects of the engagement through the provision of ‘tailor-made’ multi-national solutions, taking care of all cross-border issues, thereby minimising time consuming involvement on a wide range of issues.

Client relationships and personal contact with the partner form the cornerstone of the client service objectives. The partners in the home territory guide you through the global marketplace, drawing on their own experience and that of colleagues world-wide. The sharing of knowledge built up at local level combined with the experience of partners globally ensures a seamless approach to work. This makes HLB truly “ Global in Reach, Local in Touch ”.
