Strategy and Transparency Report

Grant Thornton International and its member firms continue to invest in people and methodologies. People are the driving force and lifeblood of the organisation and we aim to be recognised as the leader in the global accounting profession through the continued development of forthright and likeable people in our member firms who provide exceptional client service with consistently high quality. We are achieving this through the medium of an increasingly cohesive global organisation in which the member firms implement the global strategy. As a result we compete vigorously with the big 4 and other organisations.

Grant Thornton member firms will be known for not only delivering high quality, personalised service to their clients but also for speaking boldly and objectively about important matters of public interest.

This transparency report is a demonstration of our willingness to speak out on issues that matter both to the clients of Grant Thornton member firms and to the wider public. It discloses information about financial performance, risk management and quality control systems. It outlines the requirements for membership of this organisation and the governance structure we have in place to support our objective to deliver what the member firms need to grow and succeed. Finally, we believe this commitment to openness helps to demonstrate to clients, regulators and the wider public that we are an organisation in which they can continue to have trust and confidence.
