UHY CAPABILITY STATEMENT 2020 3

FROM RICK DAVID
UHY Chairman

I am delighted to present the 2020 UHY Capability Statement, my first as UHY’s chairman.
Through 2019 I have had the privilege of overseeing the growth of our international network
as it develops in line with our clients’ ever more sophisticated needs. This progress continues
in 2020 as we rise to the challenges posed by new regulations and the opportunities offered
by new technologies.

Businesses and professional advisors alike have had plenty to keep them awake at night in
recent times. Increasing political and economic uncertainties continue to cast a shadow over
international trade but I am confident that our network is facing this future in great shape,
thanks to the excellent working relationships our member firms have with their clients.

This has always been a differentiator for UHY. Alongside quality, one of our key tenets is
working together, not only with clients but also between every member firm in the network.
In this way, we strive to provide world-class service, delivered consistently and seamlessly
across borders. Our member firms currently operate in over 300 business centres across more
than 100 countries, and more locations are being added all the time – nationally through the
strong organic growth of incumbent firms; and internationally through the careful selection
and appointment of new member firms, which share the same commitment to quality and
the client-led values that define the UHY culture. It means we can keep pace with our clients’
global ambitions now and in the future, without compromise.

In this edition of the UHY Capability Statement, we present examples of working closely and
successfully with clients large and small, across a variety of sectors with all their attendant
issues and challenges. From a Hollywood legend, a world-famous charity and an ambitious
European renewables business to an award winning aerospace logistics specialist, a global
recruitment enterprise and a food-for-the-future biotech venture, I hope we provide some
insight into what makes our client relationships tick.

They are a tiny representation of the many thousands of client assignments that our member
firms across the world deliver each year, but they do serve to illustrate UHY’s collaborative
approach, the deep client relationships we nurture and the way our member firms support
cross-border client needs. But perhaps most importantly of all they are also testimonials –
what our clients value, in their own words.

I would like to thank you for reading this publication, which includes a useful directory of all
our member firms and also a reminder of the breadth of services they provide. Please do not
hesitate to contact me or any of our listed international contact partners if you would like to
discuss ways in which we might be of service.

Best wishes
Rick David
