Over the past 80 years, Grant Thornton has grown from a single accounting office to become one of the largest accounting, tax and business advisory organizations in the world. Today, Grant Thornton International operates a network of 585 offices in 110 countries – including 48 U.S. offices through Grant Thornton LLP, the fifth largest accounting firm in the U.S. – and is one of the six global accounting organizations.

As an industry leader, Grant Thornton has made a strong commitment to improving transparency in both the way we manage our organization and in business reporting. Transparency depends on trust and trust is the core of our guiding principles, with our focus being: A fierce commitment to integrity; a demand for professional excellence in all efforts; a dedication to providing leadership in our profession; and a respect for people, ethical standards, laws and regulations.

We and other leaders in the business community are working to improve transparency in corporate reporting through the Enhanced Business Reporting Consortium. This international initiative endeavors to strengthen our economy and protect investors by improving the quality and transparency of information used in decision-making. Enhanced Business Reporting will make business reporting more relevant, useful and understandable, ultimately enabling investors and creditors to see an entity through the eyes of management.

We are firmly committed to the idea that more transparent information leads to better management, better governance and better markets. We are proud to support the Age of Transparency portal and Don Tapscott for his thought leadership on this subject.
