Building a Global Center of Excellence for Forensic Accounting

Introducing the Global Forensic Community

On September 15, Allinial Global members representing 16 countries participated in a kickoff call launching our new Global Forensic Community. Led by Nelson Luis of EisnerAmper and Martin Chapman of Azets, this community aims to provide access to global advisors, identify known experts in the field, and become a resource to connect members to solve issues.

We are excited to create a platform that will drive commerce and help members generate increased revenue in this growing practice area, fully supporting the strategic vision set by our Global Executive Board.

Increasing Commerce with Client-Focused Solutions

The Global Forensic Community is an important part of our strategy to increase commerce within the Allinial Global membership, providing much-needed collaboration where projects often cross borders. Through regular meetings, this community will bring members together to learn and share best practices as they work toward providing seamless and global forensics service for clients anywhere in the world.

In keeping with our global strategy, our approach to this initiative is client-focused. Having the support of the entire Allinial Global association allows you to provide world-class solutions for your clients even if your firm is just starting out in forensic accounting.

Growth through Connectivity

Along with our community leaders, Allinial Global has identified firms with dedicated forensic resources and global experience in key areas such as internal investigations, bribery and corruption assessments, etc. If your firm wants to expand its services or collaborate to better serve clients, the Global Forensic Community is a perfect place to start.

The connectivity provided through the Global Forensic Community will allow all firms who participate to grow, not only in terms of revenues, but also with respect to expertise and skills. Connecting to a robust community of forensic accounting professionals benefits you personally—as well as your firm and your clients.

The Global Forensic Community also supports another pillar of our strategy: strengthening our global brand. As Allinial Global firms work together more frequently, clients will begin to recognize the value that Allinial Global firms bring as a collective group.

Getting Involved

This is the first in a series of many collaboration efforts that will continue to propel us forward.
