Our team is mainly based in London, UK, however we have a large resource pool based internationally. Our approach is unique amongst top consulting, advisory and assurance firms: we have established a number of specialist BDO International Funding Institutions (IFI) offices in strategic locations around the world. These offices operate to the same high international standards expected of us in London and have the specific objective of providing high-quality assistance to the international development community. They also ensure that we invest in the development of staff from the region, allowing us to play our part in promoting economic development in the countries where we operate. This strengthens our technical capability and enhances one of our unique selling points: we can mobilise high quality expert teams at short notice in remote and fragile locations.

These offices currently provide services in seven geographic regions, including:

• Eastern Africa

• Southern Africa
• Central Africa
• Middle East and Northern Africa
• Latin America & Caribbean
• Asia and the Pacific

 We also work with our large international network of BDO network firms and technical experts, which gives us an unrivalled presence around the globe.
