IGAF Worldwide - An Association of Independent Firms
IGAF Worldwide is one of the largest associations of independent public accounting companies in the world. Members are local and regional companies of Certified Public Accountants, Chartered Accountants, or their professional equivalents in non-English speaking countries. Members exchange technical advice and assistance in every service performed by the profession.

What does an IGAF Worldwide membership mean to our clients?

• Consistent quality in approach and delivery.

IGAF Worldwide's purpose is to bring the members, their clients, and the financial community the combined strength and broad scope of service made possible by a worldwide association of quality local and regional accounting companies. Our success comes not only from our programs, but from the professional standing our members enjoy in their communities. Each member company retains its identity and autonomy and preserves the important personal relationship with its clients, which is the hallmark of local company practice.

• National and international coverage.

IGAF Worldwide was founded in 1977 by ten companies in the United States and Canada. Since that time, it has grown to over 140 companies with over 350 offices in 60 countries around the world. Member companies have over 950 partners and over 8,500 personnel. IGAF provides its members with the strength and capabilities of a large, worldwide association with diverse technical skills and geographic representation not possible for a local company alone.

• The highest level of integrity and professionalism.

IGAF Worldwide members are selected based on exacting requirements for size, reputation, quality of practice, diverse technical capabilities and geographic location. These requirements must be met not only to gain admission but also to retain membership. Periodic inspections assure that members continue to meet membership requirements.

*IGAF Worldwide does not and cannot offer any professional services to clients. Each independent member of IGAF Worldwide is a separate firm and an independent legal entity. IGAF Worldwide is not a partnership and independent member firms are not acting as agents of IGAF Worldwide or other independent member firms.
