Grant Thornton adds GT Poland

Grant Thornton Advisors agreed to add Grant Thornton Poland to its multinational platform, expanding its presence in Europe. 

The deal, backed by an investor group led by private equity firm New Mountain Capital, would add GT Poland’s more than 1,200 employees and $70 million in revenue to the platform. The transaction remains subject to “finalization of definitive documentation and regulatory approval,” according to a statement from the firm.

“Poland is one of Europe’s most resilient and rapidly evolving economies, with a range of thriving industries and an appetite for sophisticated services,” Grant Thornton Advisors CEO Jim Peko said in a statement Thursday. “Making Grant Thornton Poland part of the platform, which blends local expertise with multinational scale, will allow us to bring new levels of integrated service and quality to Central and Eastern Europe.”

Earlier this week, the Top 10 Firm announced it would add Grant Thornton New Zealand to its platform. The platform currently includes firms in the U.S., Ireland, France, the United Arab Emirates, the Netherlands, the Channel Islands and the Cayman Islands. It also announced transactions with firms in Spain, Switzerland, Liechtenstein, Belgium and Luxembourg, which it expects to close in the coming weeks.

“The multinational platform we are joining creates unprecedented opportunities — both for us and for our clients,” Grant Thornton Poland CEO Tomasz Wróblewski said in a statement. “Through this collaboration, we gain access to advanced technological solutions, many powered by AI, and this is precisely what our employees and clients expect from us. Moreover, a consistent and fully integrated platform offers clients even better cross-border service and provides our employees with opportunities for development in a multinational environment.”
