But it was full of interesting challenges. The tenth anniversary is only one step on our long and winding road, and I’m sure that Baker Tilly shall step forward further with our determination in achieving higher goals. Now, we are ranked seventh in Romania in terms of combined fees and number of employees with service offerings in five different business units”. Klitou said the firm’s plans include to expand across other major towns in Romania.

As regards Baker Tilly’s social responsibility, Klitou said that “we are very proud that our close collaboration with Hope and Hopes in Romania is continuing, as we are giving the chance to a better life to institutionalised children in Romania. We have also been one of the founding members of the Bilateral Chamber of Commerce and Industry Romania – Cyprus in our efforts to strengthen the commercial relations between Romania and Cyprus”.
