NEW YORK – Forvis Mazars, LLP, ranked among the largest public accounting and consulting firms in the United States, has named Thomas Kienzle to lead the firm’s German Desk, enhancing services for clients with business interests in both the U.S. and German markets.

Kienzle, a managing director in the firm’s audit practice based in New York, brings 12 years of experience from a major international firm in Germany and the United States. As a licensed CPA in both countries and fluent in both languages, Kienzle will personally focus on audit as well as financial accounting services and will leverage expertise across the firm in areas such as transfer pricing, tax compliance, International Tax Services, and M&A due diligence.

“I’m excited to serve such a dynamic group of clients,” Kienzle said. “Germany is the third-largest foreign direct investor in the U.S. market and there are more than 6,000 subsidiaries of German-headquartered entities in this country. The business relationship between the countries is robust, and I am eager to strengthen those ties by helping clients find solutions for their most complex, cross-border issues.”

Kienzle’s addition to the Forvis Mazars team further bolsters support for international clients within the Forvis Mazars Global Network, which launched earlier this year. The network provides services to clients through offices in more than 100 countries and territories worldwide.

“Our focus on providing an Unmatched Client Experience at the local level while also truly understanding the bigger global picture is a key differentiator,” Kienzle said. “I look forward to helping our clients unlock their full potential, regardless of where they do business.” 

“A targeted strategy and effective implementation are essential for international activities,” said Mike Coletti, partner and global business leader for Forvis Mazars in the U.S. “Thomas’ efforts will help our German client companies in the United States mitigate risks, drive efficiencies, and navigate the complexities of the U.S. market.”
