Accountants are consulted more than any other professional for business advice. The portfolio of services they provide continues to expand and extends beyond traditional areas of tax preparation and auditing. Key growth areas include niche practices, technology consulting and financial planning.

IGAF Worldwide's purpose is to bring its independent members, their clients, and the financial community the combined strength and broad scope of service made possible by a worldwide association of local and regional accounting firms. Each IGAF Worldwide member firm retains its identity and autonomy, and preserves the important personal relationship with its clients, which is the hallmark of local firm practice.
