BrazilHLB adds professional services firms in Mexico and Jamaica
Top twenty accounting network HLB has extended its reach in Latin America with the addition of new member firms in Mexico and Jamaica.
Joining its HLB Mexico organisation, HLB FFA Consultores is a professional services firm based in Tijuana, a city just south of the US border. Founded in 2010, the firm has expertise in financial audit, tax consulting, business consulting, payroll & accounting outsourcing, tax refunds, transfer pricing and social security advice.
The addition bolsters HLB’s expertise and presence in the Baja California region, which the firm describes as a “key economic market” in Mexico. Francisco Garate Estrada, Managing Partner of HLB FFA Consultores said: “Being located along the Mexico border with the US has allowed us to have a broad perspective in understanding our local and international client's needs. We believe that this is what makes us different from the rest.”
The expansion comes months after HLB ramped up its coverage in Mexico’s capital with the addition of HLB MAAT Asesores to its network. Founded in 2017, and based in Mexico City, the firm has expertise in tax services, transfer pricing, succession planning, legal support, business planning, mergers and acquisitions and economic analysis.
Meanwhile, in Jamaica, a Caribbean island nation with a population of just under 3 million, HLB recently welcomed HLB Mair Russell as its newest member. Founded in 1967, HLB Mair Russell is a professional services firm with expertise in audit and assurance, tax and advisory services. HLB Mair Russell operates from offices in Kingston and Montego Bay.
Commenting on the joining of forces, Managing Partner of HLB Mair Russell Sixto Coy said: “It’s exciting to be part of a global network that is investing heavily in technology to increase efficiencies and capabilities. We are looking forward to working with HLB to deliver even higher quality services to our clients.”
Formed in 1969, HLB has over 30,000 partners and staff across 750 offices in 150 countries worldwide.
