TPA: Regional roots. Global network.

TPA Poland is an independent member of Baker Tilly International, which means it can offer its clients services of one of the world’s largest networks of tax advisors, auditors, accountants and business consultants.

The Baker Tilly International network includes over 123 independent member companies employing over 41,000 people in 703 offices across 145 countries, which makes Baker Tilly International one of the top 10 global business advisory and audit firms.

TPA Poland, Baker Tilly TPA and Baker Tilly Legal Poland are the exclusive representatives of Baker Tilly International in Poland.

The history of TPA

TPA (acronym for Treuhand Partner Austria) was founded in 1979 in Langenlois, Lower Austria. It would grow rapidly from the very beginning. In the early 90s, it also started its expansion in the markets of Central and Southeastern Europe.

In 2005, the company’s name was changed to “TPA Horwath” following its entry into the global network of Crowe Horwath International.

Autumn 2016 saw yet another important change. Since then, in all CEE and SEE countries, we continue to operate as a separate entity under the brand name TPA, within the global Baker Tilly International network of 123 independent companies with more than 38,000 employees in 706 offices across 148 countries.

Thanks to this initiative, TPA has been significantly expanding its development potential in the German-speaking area, while maintaining and strengthening the benefits of membership in one of the largest networks of consulting companies in the world.

On February 15, 2018, through a merger with a law firm W/IRP, TPA Poland extended the scope of its multidisciplinary competencies with legal advisory. The dynamically developing team, operating under the Baker Tilly Legal Poland brand, specializes in providing services to Polish and foreign entrepreneurs in the areas of real estate, corporate services, litigation, restructuring, and labor law. The Law Firm’s clients include top real estate development companies, investment funds, banking and manufacturing companies. The lawyers of the Law Firm, employed in two offices in Warsaw and Poznań, are characterized by their experience and expert knowledge gained in leading international law firms, as well as their in-depth knowledge of the markets in which our clients operate.

TPA Poland is constantly developing to provide its clients with a comprehensive range of services. And thus, following an agreement concluded on September 2, 2019, over 60 experts and tax, accounting and audit specialists, so far operating under the Moore Stephens Central Audit brand, joined the Warsaw-based tax advisory, audit, accounting and payroll outsourcing teams of TPA Poland. As a result of the merger, with its team of nearly 300 experts and turnover exceeding EUR 13.5 million in 2019, TPA Poland now ranks among the largest and most dynamically developing consulting companies.

As of October 2019 TPA Poland is expanding the range of services addressed to the real estate sector with a new business line: Real Estate Services. As part of the new specialization, the company offers real estate advisory services, with a particular emphasis on strategic consulting, valuation and all kinds of financing and refinancing. This is another milestone in consolidating TPA Poland ‘s strong position on the advisory services market.

In response to the changing market conditions and to confirm our stable position in the audit and business advisory segment, in 2020 we reached another stage of our integration with the Baker Tilly global network, creating the Baker Tilly TPA brand.

Under the Baker Tilly TPA brand we provide audit and business advisory services. A global brand is of particular importance in respect of these services, as it is a proof of the company’s international reach and the highest and uniform professional standards. The new brand also means tangible benefits for our clients, opening up new fields for cooperation and wider access to the resources of the global Baker Tilly network. The global brand also increases our ability to compete in both the service and labor markets.
