Europe’s Accounting and Auditing industry is well-established, with leading nations like the UK and Germany generating significant revenue, partly because London and Frankfurt are major global financial hubs. Growing enterprise numbers and employment rates have expanded the potential client pool for accounting and auditing firms. Despite the industry providing both procyclical and countercyclical services, volatile economic conditions have caused some operational disruption, though revenue has remained fairly resilient. Revenue is expected to inch upward at a compound annual rate of 0.4% over the five years through 2025 to €235 billion, including a forecast hike of 0.6% in 2025.
