partner involvement on every engagement.
This is complemented by the work of Hong Chuan Tan, whose cross‑border experience spans Australia, Asia and emerging

“This recognition reinforces that there is strong demand for specialist, non‑Big 4 transfer pricing firms that can handle genuinely complex work at scale. Our growth has been driven by clients looking for deep technical expertise, direct partner involvement and practical outcomes under real regulatory pressure. Being shortlisted in both categories is a credit to the calibre of our people and the quality of work they deliver.”
