5 Reasons why your firm can serve clients just as well as larger accounting firm, as part of MGI Worldwide membership

Why you can be confident that your firm can serve clients better than a Big 4 or large accounting firm

Here’s 5 reasons why an independent accounting firm backed by a leading global accountancy network and association like MGI Worldwide can compete more effectively with larger accounting firms. 

Advantages of working with an independent firm that is backed by a leading network of public accounting and advisory firms over and above larger accounting firms  

A bigger firm does not always mean a better firm. No matter your size, independent firms can offer a more personal and more cost-effective solution for clients looking to switch from a larger accounting firm for all their audit, tax, accounting and business consulting needs. Here’s why:

Better Service 
Fair Service 

Independent firms are very competitive offering more committed and personal service for all your audit, tax, accounting and business consulting needs.

The right choice of alternative to the Big 4 and larger accounting firm 

With the recent global pandemic and more enquiries than ever from subsidiaries of global entities looking to move away from the larger accountancy firms, clients are looking to reduce their bottom line and look for alternatives, making it the ideal time to win these new clients. 

Audrey Danasamy, MGI Worldwide Regional Director for Asia, MENA and Africa elaborates: 

“Member firms are reporting a common theme and seeing more enquiries from conglomerates looking to cut their costs thanks to the pandemic. One of the costs was the standard regulatory compliance work.  

Clients have differing needs when it comes to choosing a service provider, so try not to assume that they would prefer a large accounting firm over a smaller firm. Firms that have the extensive backing of a global accountancy network such as MGI Worldwide are proving just as capable of securing these clients.”
