Taxand, the world’s largest organisation of independent tax advisory firms, has expanded its reach with the addition of eight new member firms.

LeitnerLeitner, a leading tax advisory and auditing firm in Central, Eastern, and South Eastern Europe with 750 tax advisers across the region, joins Taxand in Austria, Croatia, Czech Republic, Hungary, Serbia, Slovakia, and Slovenia.

LED Taxand Italia also joins the Taxand network in Italy. The firm is a new Italian tax law firm headquartered in Milan with 30 tax advisers.
