Abacus Worldwide Adds Shanghai-Based Accounting Firm
Chinese accounting firm WSP Biz Advisory has joined Abacus Worldwide, an international association of independent accounting, consulting, and legal firms.
The firm joins the association as a part of Abacus One, a membership category for solo practitioners who want to grow exponentially.
Based in Shanghai, WSP provides audit, tax, and consulting services to domestic and international clients. The firm supports organizations operating in and with China, with a focus on helping clients navigate regulatory requirements, cross-border transactions, and an increasingly complex business environment.
“This marks an important return for our association in China, a market that is central to so many of our members’ cross-border relationships,” Jessica L. Levin, PhD, chief operating officer of Abacus Worldwide, said in a statement. “WSP brings the local expertise and international perspective needed to support that activity in a meaningful way, particularly for our ASPAC firms working closely with Chinese partners. Their presence strengthens our ability to connect members where it matters most and support business across one of the world’s most active economic regions.”
Abacus Worldwide aims to offer a cost effective and convenient resource to growing firms, and its goal is to assist member firms in meeting client needs locally and internationally by fostering connections with the right firms in the right locations, officials say.
The association has more than 120 member firms in 52 countries.
