Peter Bodin, CEO Grant Thornton International Ltd says: “These results highlight the value of our continued focus on our network strategy and its ability to deliver sustainable growth for the network, despite another challenging year in many markets.
“Over the past year our member firms have continued to focus on helping their clients navigate volatile markets, whether due to geo-political tensions and their macro-economic consequences, or the ongoing impacts of COVID. Through all this, our firms have helped clients realise their international ambitions as businesses continue to look abroad for growth opportunities.
“These results also reinforce the true value of our multidisciplinary model for the network and for clients, as it enables us to invest in the technology and enhanced capabilities needed by today’s international clients. This in turn provides great opportunities for our people to further develop their skills and expertise – making Grant Thornton an attractive place to work.
“The resilience of our network will continue to be tested in the months and years ahead, but I have every confidence our member firms will continue to deliver for their clients, their people and their communities.”
