I am confident that my recent work and relevant experience will significantly contribute to KPMG’s culture of building lasting relationships with clients, as well as developing knowledge of their organizations, personnel and lines of business, and helping them handle accurately and efficiently both day-to-day issues and complex strategic matters.
In the recent context of increased demand from our clients wishing to protect their commercial position in times of crisis, focusing more on adopting a project management approach that ensures cost control, predictability and certainty for our clients, has become a real necessity. Consequently, having a fully integrated law firm which is involved in the client’s business plans from an early stage is essential to support the client’s commercial objectives and anticipate the best outcome for the client. More importantly, this will allow us put our advice into context and add value to the client’s business.”
