What is an Alliance?

An “alliance” unites firms based on shared principles and/or for mutual assistance. Praxity unites independent professional audit, tax and advisory services firms to benefit them and their clients by extending their global reach and expertise – allowing members to offer both global and bespoke services to clients. Praxity Alliance member firms operate with the freedom to tailor their approach to best meet their clients' needs, rather than being bound by the unified structure typical of a network. Each Praxity member retains full operational independence, collaborating with other Alliance firms not out of obligation, but by choice.

Unity is at the heart of everything we do. Built on strong relationships, we prioritise people while fostering seamless collaboration, effective communication, and efficient processes. This enables us to offer truly global capabilities enhanced by deep local expertise. Founded in 2007, Praxity has grown into the world’s largest alliance of independent accountancy and consulting firms, a testament to our continued evolution and commitment to excellence. Over the years, our efforts have been recognised with multiple awards, reflecting the quality and impact of our work.

Our uniqueness lies in our relationships and our ability to balance independence with unity. While each member firm is distinct, we are bound together by shared values and a collective drive to deliver exceptional outcomes for our clients.
