WHITE PLAINS, N.Y., April 18, 2011 /PRNewswire/ -- WTP Advisors, an award-winning tax and business advisory firm, has entered into nine new affiliations with tax and accounting consultancy firms in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Hong Kong, Ireland, Japan, the Netherlands and Spain, adding to an existing international presence that includes mainland China and the U.K.

"We have reached critical mass, and are now at the point at which we can offer services in almost every major country in the world," says Ian Boccaccio, partner and co-founder of WTP Advisors.

WTP Advisors began building its global capacity over a year ago by initiating affiliations with tax and business advisory firms with similar passion, experience, and expertise, in order to meet the needs of its growing base of multinational clients.

"Our clients are spread across many borders, and are exposed to many different tax and legal environments.  Our mission is to improve an organization's bottom line whether it is doing business in Topeka or Tokyo," says Boccaccio.

Each new affiliate firm was selected based on its reputation for high-quality work, and hands-on involvement by senior staff with projects – two important traits that WTP Advisors brings to market, which have been crucial for WTP's continued success, and for building its peerless reputation.

"Again and again, WTP Advisors has won clients away from the Big Four accounting firms because the quality of our work is unmatched," says Michael Minihan, partner and co-founder of WTP Advisors.

In fact, all affiliates within the WTP Advisors network have a similar history and mission. Founding members of each firm left one of the Big Four accounting firms in order to create a new venture that would provide high quality tax consulting based on the individual needs of a client.

"We have built a network of the best and brightest in the industry.  Those firms that provide exceptional service are the ones that will be around for the long-term. They have the drive, the talent and the energy to consistently find innovative ways to move the needle.  These new affiliates will ensure that the WTP Advisors name becomes a trusted and familiar brand on a global scale," says Boccaccio.

In July 2010, WTP Advisors announced that it had begun an alliance with London-based Hopkins Consulting, which will now do business as WTP Advisors UK.

Our highly skilled professionals equipped with years of industry experience, coupled with our cutting-edge technologies, make substantive and long-term differences to an organization's profitability.
