KPMG wins Global Firm of the Year
A NORTH EAST accountancy firm has been named Global Firm of the Year at the Accountancy Age Awards 2010.
In awarding the Global Firm of the Year prize, the judges highlighted KPMG’s position as leading auditor of UK stock exchange-listed companies (391) and that the firm won more than 7,000 new client engagements during the year.
Beyond the UK, KPMG Europe has expanded to now include sixteen countries.
One senior CFO testimonial described KPMG as “a true partner, always going the extra mile to deliver high quality client service and adding significant value to our business.”
This year was the second year in a row that KPMG has won Business Recovery Project of the Year. Last year, it was for JJB Sports.
This year, the award was for KPMG’s work on the Company Voluntary Arrangement (CVA) for Blacks Leisure.
KPMG’s Newcastle Office Senior Partner, said: “We are very proud to win these awards. To be named Global Firm of the Year is a significant compliment, and I am pleased to see our pioneering work on CVAs recognised in the Business Recovery category.
“The commitment, effort and success from our 160 staff in Newcastle have contributed in no small part, to the credentials behind these accolades.”
