International Business Services
There are cultural differences, language barriers, and currency exchanges – and that’s before we even talk about transfer pricing and IFRS. But there is also opportunity. If the world is on your doorstep, would you like a helping hand?
Our dedicated International Business Services Group provides planning and consulting to companies who do business overseas, enjoy resources produced by foreign markets, or have facilities in other countries. They also address the unique accounting needs of American subsidiaries of foreign parent companies, and the individual expatriates who make up their workforce.

Where in the world is CSH?
Our international reach is extensive. At Clark Schaefer Hackett our services are designed for middle-market companies looking for a firm with depth, expertise, and the benefits of membership with AGN International.

Today our shareholders remain actively involved in leadership of AGN.
