During the official launching ceremony at the Marriott Hotel last night, CEO of the international firm, Albert Lopez, explained that the company decided to invest in Guyana in light of its growing economy.
‘’How did we get to Guyana? Conversations we’ve been having for a few years, relationships through Suriname, relationships through Trinidad, working with some clients mutually throughout the years. Then we started seeing the importance of Guyana in the sight of the world, and more importantly, we started seeing large economies setting their eyes on Guyana and making investments. Some of our larger clients from larger economies started reaching out and asking do you have an office in Guyana, we can say yes, we have an office in Guyana”, he said.
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.
Rakesh Latchana, a Guyana partner at BDO, said that Guyana has had long affiliations with the US company. He noted that the company aims to put its clients first.
“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,” he posited.
BDO is operating in over 160 countries around the world and has 21 offices in the Caribbean.
