A Legacy of Resilience and Growth

Past, Present & Future

Moores Rowland’s long and distinguished history, combined with a clear vision for the future, creates a unique blend of legacy and innovation that sets the network apart.

Anyone reviewing our track record can see our consistent performance. We believe that working with us is not only a wise choice—it’s a lifetime opportunity. Our facts and figures speak for themselves and reflect why we remain a business of choice.

Evolution of the Network

With the wave of regulatory changes in the early 21st century, Moores Rowland members agreed to unify under a single audit program and manual, adopt shared branding, and exchange operational data and referrals. This strategic alignment allowed us to expand in new ways—welcoming more than one member in the same city when services differ, such as legal and advisory, allowing firms to complement each other.

Today, driven by virtual working environments, Millennial technologies, and globalization, our members seek a broader, collaborative community to exchange ideas. While association is important, we believe relationships are even more critical.

Despite the GATS Agreement, some jurisdictions still restrict audit and legal practices to locally qualified professionals or to firms primarily owned by local partners. Moores Rowland operates globally, with the understanding and adaptability to meet both international and local requirements.

Only full member firms have the right to use the Moores Rowland name. Our members share knowledge, skills, and resources to deliver high-quality services globally while retaining the advantages of being rooted in local laws, standards, and practices.
