Andersen Global today announced a collaboration agreement with Albieri e Associados, a tax and accounting firm based in São Paulo, Brazil. Andersen Global now has six locations in Brazil through its member and collaborating firms.

Albieri e Associados is a premier business consulting firm in São Paulo. Its team of professionals brings decades of experience in accounting consulting, business tax and finance, operational consulting, technology and paralegal assistance. The firm’s clients cross a wide variety of sectors, including retail, automotive, food and beverage, and the service industry. The firm has 130 professionals in two offices in São Paulo.

“We operate throughout the entire accounting, tax and financial chain in a seamless way that is personalized for each of our clients,” said Luiz Albieri, Founder and Principal Partner of Albieri e Associados.  “Our client-centered approach to everything we do is something I honed at Arthur Andersen many years ago, and now, I’m beyond thrilled it’s come full circle and we are collaborating with Andersen Global.”

Along with collaborating firm Lotti & Araujo, which has offices in São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro, Albieri e Associados will work alongside member firm Andersen, which has offices in São Paulo and Campinas.

“I’ve watched Luiz and his team do really excellent business for quite a while. They operate with the highest professional and personal standards, but they also bring highly-specialized business consulting to our Latin American team,” said Leonardo Mesquita, Regional Managing Director for Latin America. “This is an integrated solution for Brazil, with a huge potential to bring expanded service opportunities to the corporate market.”

“Albieri e Associados’ approach and unique service offerings complement our tax services in Brazil and the region very well,” said Mark Vorsatz, Andersen Tax LLC CEO and Andersen Global Chairman. “Our platform continues to expand exponentially, and Brazil is a key component of our Latin American business strategy. But we aren’t going to sacrifice quality for the sake of growth, and with Albieri e Associados, we get to add incredible quality, business acumen, and expand our best-in-class offerings for the region.”
