Blasco y Asociados joins Alliott Global Alliance in Mexico City

Founded in 1974 by Gregorio Blasco Snr, his son Gregorio Blasco Jnr joined him at the firm twelve years ago following a career at Deloitte and Arthur Andersen. Offering audit, tax, accounting and payroll services, the sectors served by Blasco y Asociados include retail and industry, food, pharmaceuticals, and energy. The firm has a renowned audit practice and serves a growing number of new clients and groups who have an international profile and who require access to the cross-border know-how and resources the firm can now offer through its membership of AGA. Staff at the firm conduct business in the Spanish, English, and French languages.

Gregorio Blasco Snr comments:

“As a top 50 firm in the region, we understand the importance of evolving, adapting, and innovating to stay relevant in an ever-changing market and are therefore keen and look forward to utilising the AGA brand and membership in 82 countries to support our increasingly international clientele and to providing additional services to meet local clients' needs when required.

“We understand the ethos and commitment that membership of a group such as AGA requires, and we look forward to sharing best practice with our colleagues in other jurisdictions and to the opportunities that this mutually beneficial relationship will bring.”

Giles Brake, Alliott Global Alliance CEO, adds:

“With Mexico City often being the preferred regional headquarters for groups expanding across Latin America, appointing a firm of the calibre of Blasco y Asociados that can represent Alliott Global Alliance in this important business hub was key. The continued growth of our alliance in the Latin American market makes AGA a compelling value proposition for entrepreneurial businesses seeking expert, highly responsive professional services firms whose partners will proactively coordinate their compliance and growth challenges across different jurisdictions. We give a very warm welcome to Gregorio Snr, Gregorio Jnr and the entire team.”
