Local expertise with an international background
Many Hungarian accounting and audit firms know the local rules well. Few are also part of a global professional network that has been running for eight decades. MGI-BPO has been a member of MGI Worldwide since 2005, and that is the background that lets a business in Hungary get local knowledge and international reach in one place.
This matters most when your operations cross a border: for the Hungarian subsidiary of an international group, for a Hungarian company expanding abroad, or for a business looking for a partner in another country.
Our global accounting network, supporting your growth.

What this means for you as a client
The core values of MGI Worldwide are personal, global and collaborative, and they underpin everything the network does.
Personal. Partners of MGI Worldwide member firms look after their clients personally. Within the network we build close working friendships based on loyalty, respect and shared experience. We offer the personal touch not found in large firms.
Global. MGI Worldwide is present on every continent and in just about every key economic centre in the world. Today we have members in 100 countries, and tomorrow it may be more. However complex a client requirement is, someone in MGI will have the expertise and the resources to help.
Collaborative. Member firms collaborate regularly, sharing ideas, knowledge, skills and experience, and are stronger together. This is the core strength of MGI Worldwide: our collective insight and collaborative culture make sure we keep providing the best possible support and advice wherever our clients choose to do business.
Membership is not a logo at the bottom of a website. It brings concrete benefits:
One point of contact, global reach. If your question crosses a border, you do not have to go looking for a reliable expert abroad. The network consists of independent member firms in each country, and through one of them the expertise of another country becomes available, often with a single phone call, while you keep talking to your own Hungarian contact.
Consistent quality under external control. Member firms are subject to regular quality reviews against international standards. When you work with us, you can rely not only on our Hungarian chamber rating but also on the fact that we meet an international benchmark.
Service in English, aligned with international expectations. For clients with an international background we work in English and in Hungarian, in line with the parent company’s reporting requirements and deadlines.
Support as your company grows. If you set up a company abroad, enter a new market or buy a foreign business, we recommend and bring in a local member firm we know personally and that works to the same principles as we do.
What quality does the membership guarantee?
Membership is not self-declared. The network runs a working, monitored quality assurance system, and every member firm, ours included, falls under it.
Regular quality review against international standards
The MGI Worldwide quality assurance system is built on ISQM 1, the international quality management standard. Member firms report annually, through an online system, on their compliance with the standards, and every member firm goes through an onsite review every three to six years. The process is supervised by the network’s technical committee, which scores member firm performance, prescribes corrective action, and excludes from the network firms that consistently underperform and show no improvement. Quality here is not a promise but a condition checked repeatedly against an external benchmark.
Full member of the Forum of Firms
MGI-BPO is proud to be part of MGI Worldwide, which is a member of the Forum of Firms, an independent association of international networks of firms that have transnational audit appointments or are interested in accepting such appointments.
The public interest objective of the Forum is to assist the users of financial statements by promoting consistent and high-quality standards of financial reporting and auditing practices worldwide. The Forum brings together member firms and involves them closely with the activities of the International Federation of Accountants (IFAC).
Member networks of the Forum have confirmed that they have policies and methodologies with respect to transnational audits that are based, to the extent practicable, on International Standards on Auditing (ISAs) and conform to the IESBA Code of Ethics for Professional Accountants, and that they maintain appropriate quality control standards in accordance with the International Standards on Quality Control, in addition to relevant national standards. MGI Worldwide as a member network has also confirmed that it conducts, to the extent not prohibited by national regulation, regular globally coordinated internal quality assurance reviews.
MGI Worldwide has been a full member of the Forum of Firms since 2019, following a year-long, detailed quality assurance review. The Forum has around 30 members, including the Big Four networks. The quality review process and the Forum membership are connected: the Forum membership is exactly what confirms that the network’s quality assurance system meets international expectations.

A top 20 global network with balanced coverage
According to the 2025 International Accounting Bulletin World Survey, MGI Worldwide is one of the 20 largest global accounting networks outside the Big Four, ranked 16th. It is not built on a handful of large markets: it has strong, balanced coverage in every region.
The network in practice: one example
A recent case inside the network shows what this means in practice. When one member firm was looking for experience for the audit tender of a large insurance company, the regional directors connected it within a few days with member firms from several parts of the world, from Tunisia through India to Australia, which shared the expertise needed straight away. The same strength is available to a Hungarian client through us: if local expertise is needed anywhere in the world, the network makes it available in no time.
International M&A and business connections
The network is not only professional backing, it is also a business opportunity. Through the Global M&A Group of MGI Worldwide, cross-border buyer and seller connections are available for acquisitions and disposals, so our clients can find a partner or a target for a transaction beyond the Hungarian market as well.
