KPMG, a leading provider of audit, tax and advisory services, is celebrating its 50 years of successful operations in Bahrain in a big way.

To mark the occasion, a reception was recently organised on the sidelines of KPMG’s ongoing Middle East and South Asia (MESA) Partners Conference at the Ritz Carlton Hotel and Spa.

The conference gathered senior executives from KPMG’s member firms across 20 countries to discuss its regional strategy, said a statement from the company.

The reception was attended by government officials and senior executives from the local business community, in addition to the chairman of KPMG International Bill Thomas and delegates from the firm’s global and regional leadership.
    
Jamal Fakhro, managing partner at KPMG in Bahrain, said: “I would like to thank our clients and business partners for joining us in celebrating our presence in the kingdom for 50 years.”

“It has been a journey full of growth and success indeed, and I am very excited about our future as the firm continues to thrive,” he added.
