BDO Appoints New Member Firm in Guyana

BDO, Chartered Accountants, officially announced the opening of its office in Quamina Street, Georgetown, Guyana.

The firm offers audit and assurance services, tax compliance and advisory services, business services outsourcing such as payroll and accounting, and a wide range of other professional services.

At a reception held at the Georgetown Marriott, Managing Partner Rakesh Latchana said “One of the largest professional services firms in the world is now firmly established in the Guyana market. BDO’s global vision and brand promise is to be the leader for Exceptional Client Service and our clients can expect to see this promise delivered.”

Latchana further noted that "At BDO, we build strong relationships with our clients and invest time in getting to know what matters to them. Our integrated global network already enjoys a reputation for delivering an outstanding service that is consistently bettered in that of our competitors, and BDO’s ambition is to become the market leader from exceptional client service."

Albert Lopez, the Chief Executive Officer of BDO Americas, added "... we’re not bringing people in from other countries, from other territories. What we’re doing is investing in people that know the economy, that know the industry and more important, people that are here and know the culture."

In the Caribbean region, BDO’s network now extends to 21 countries. The Guyana office will have access to global network resources and will be working especially close with teams in Trinidad and Suriname. Partners and directors of BDO offices in these two countries were also present for the official launch.
