Five Decades of Working Together Across Borders

Our Story

In 1969, partners from five different accounting firms from five different countries came together across borders for the benefit of their clients. From these very humble beginnings, a shared business philosophy was born and became a concept of providing consistent and personal services to their clients. This is how the HLB network was established. Over the past five decades, those first five firms have grown to 300+ member firms and HLB has become one of the world's leading networks.
