History

Pannell Kerr Forster^[1]^[2] was founded in 1969 when four accountancy firms from Australia, Canada, the United Kingdom and the United States joined to create an international association. The four firms were:

Pannell Fitzpatrick & Co, founded in 1869 by William Henry Pannell (UK);
Harris, Kerr, Forster & Co, founded in 1911 as Harris, Kerr & Co by William Harris & Errol Kerr, and in 1923 as WJ Forster & Co by William Forster (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 an 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.

As of January 2011^[update], over 21,000 staff were employed by PKF member firms.^[3]

2018, the PKF International network was ranked 10th in the World.
