The Grant Thornton Advisors intends to expand by adding Grant Thornton Poland. The transaction, backed by an investor group led by New Mountain Capital, will bring Grant Thornton Poland’s more than 1,200 professionals and $70 million in annual revenue into a platform of 14 firms worldwide, eight of which are based in Europe — namely Grant Thornton firms in Ireland, France, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, the Channel Islands and Switzerland/Liechtenstein.
“Poland is one of Europe’s most resilient and rapidly evolving economies, with a range of thriving industries and an appetite for sophisticated services,” Jim Peko, CEO of Grant Thornton Advisors, said. “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.”
Steve Tennant, CEO for Europe, the Middle East and Africa at the Grant Thornton Advisors multinational platform, said, “Grant Thornton Poland is an ideal addition to our already impressive European footprint. By adding the Polish firm, we’ll expand our ability to deliver seamless, borderless solutions, all while strengthening our position in the region and reinforcing our commitment to helping clients navigate complexity with speed, scale and quality.”
Tomasz Wróblewski, CEO of Grant Thornton Poland, said, “The multinational platform we are joining creates unprecedented opportunities — both for us and for our clients. 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.”
The expanded platform will continue to be part of the Grant Thornton International Limited network, which comprises member firms in more than 150 markets worldwide. The transaction remains subject to finalization of definitive documentation and regulatory approval.
