SAN FRANCISCO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Andersen Tax makes its debut in Africa as the former Partners of WTS ADEBIYI & Associates, a tax firm based in Nigeria, adopt the Andersen name. The firm, which joined as a collaborating firm in May of 2017, has locations in both Lagos and Abuja.

Our growth here is part of a larger strategy to increase our footprint in the region,” said Andersen Tax CEO, Mark Vorsatz. “In addition, I have seen the dedication to premier client service that Olaleye and his team have demonstrated since they joined us a few months ago, and they truly embody the values that our organization represents.”
