THE BEGINNING
Partly due to the collapse of Arthur Andersen and the merger of Pricewaterhouse and Coopers & Lybrand (PwC), many former experts of the Big-5 firms began to start their own boutique firms.
They sought to provide quality and more responsive service to clients, who were becoming dissatisfied with the increased cost and delays in providing timely solutions by these large firms.
During a meeting in The Hague amongst tax firms from many countries, who shared a working relationship for more than a decade, a common vision was forged for the direction of the international assignment industry. Thus began United Tax Network and the expansion of the network.
