PKF (Pannell Kerr Forster) is a global network of accountancy firms. Member firms operate under the PKF brand in over 119 countries worldwide. Total revenues for 2005 were $1.2 billion USD, placing PKF in the top 10 global accountancy firms.
Pannell Kerr Forster was founded in 1969 when four accountancy firms from Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States joined together to create an international association. The four firms were:
- Pannell, Fitzpatrick & Co (UK);
- Harris, Kerr, Forster & Co (USA);
- Campbell, Sharp, Nash & Field (Canada); and
- Wilson, Bishop, Bowes & Craig (Australia).
In 1980, member firms decided to use Pannell Kerr Forster as their common brand name to create a true international accountancy brand. In 2000, member firms decided to shorten their name to PKF. Member firms are now adopting this name in their home markets, or adding PKF as a prefix to the existing firm name.
