It builds on the recently announced platform acquisitions of Grant Thornton member firms in Ireland, the United Arab Emirates, Spain, the Netherlands, Switzerland/ Liechtenstein, Belgium, the Channel Islands, the Cayman Islands and Luxembourg.
The platform also includes Auxis, a pioneer in outsourcing and business modernization services, and Stax, which specializes in commercial due diligence and value creation.
Grant Thornton France stands as one of the premier accounting and advisory firms in a key global financial center. It has demonstrated consistent outsized growth, becoming one of the largest firms in the Grant Thornton International Limited (GTIL) network — with 2,800 employees across 24 offices. It is highly regarded for its commitment to quality, clients and customised solutions that drive measurable outcomes.
Through this transaction, the Grant Thornton Advisors platform will accelerate its growth in the French market. Clients will benefit from access to an even more extensive array of industry expertise and innovative solutions, amplified by substantial investments in technology and talent.
