Strategic Alliances

MSI partners with selected third party providers to the professional services market. MSI works closely with these organisations, all leaders in their respective fields, to ensure that our members benefit from their expertise in the form of speaking engagements and articles, and from concessions that they would not be able to secure by going direct.

In turn, our alliance partners benefit from access to a strong international association of independent law and accounting firms to whom their services are highly relevant.

If your company provides services to the legal and/or accounting professions, and ou would like to find out more information about the benefits of involvement in our program, please contact MSI's marketing team for more information.
