Why do face-to-face connections still matter in international business?

Digital communication makes it easier than ever to connect across borders. Yet meeting in person offers something different: the opportunity to build trust, exchange ideas and develop a deeper understanding of the people we work with.

For independent professional firms, these relationships can become the foundation for future collaboration, knowledge sharing and stronger support for international clients.

At GMNI, meetings and conferences create opportunities for members to connect beyond the screen, strengthen professional relationships and explore ways to work together across markets.

Because international collaboration is not just about knowing which firms operate in different countries. It is also about knowing the people behind those firms.

Having an international network is valuable.

But the real value of that network depends on the relationships behind it.

A list of firms in different countries does not automatically create collaboration. Strong international relationships are built through trust, communication and a willingness to work together when clients need support across borders.

When professionals know the people they are referring to, understand their expertise and have established ways of working together, international collaboration becomes more than a connection on paper.

It becomes a relationship that can support real client needs.

For independent firms, these relationships can provide access to local expertise, facilitate referrals and create opportunities to collaborate, while allowing each firm to remain independent.

At GMNI, international relationships are built through connection, knowledge sharing and collaboration between independent professional firms worldwide.

Because a strong international network isn't defined only by who is in it - but by how well its members work together.

What does being part of an international association really mean?

It is not simply about being connected to firms in different countries.

It is about knowing who to turn to when a client’s needs extend beyond your local market. It is about building relationships, exchanging expertise and working together across borders.

For independent professional firms, international collaboration can provide access to local knowledge and trusted relationships, without compromising their independence.

At GMNI, independent firms connect to share knowledge, collaborate and support clients across borders.

Because international capability starts with the right relationships.

Choosing an international partner is about more than finding a firm in another country.

The right partner can directly influence the quality of support you provide to your clients across borders.

Before building an international relationship, consider five key questions:
1. Local expertise ➜ Do they understand the market and its regulations?
2. Trust ➜ Can you rely on them to support your clients?
3. Responsiveness ➜ Will they be there when you need them?
4. Collaboration ➜ Are they willing to work closely with your firm?
5. Client focus ➜ Will your client’s needs remain at the centre?

At GMNI, independent professional firms build trusted international relationships to exchange expertise, support clients and collaborate across borders.

The right international partner can become a valuable extension of your firm.

When a client’s needs cross borders, having the right international relationships can make all the difference.

For Huisman Adviseurs, being part of GMNI means being able to support clients beyond the Netherlands by connecting with trusted firms in other countries.

A current example involves a client whose employee is relocating to Spain while continuing to work for a Netherlands-based employer. The situation raises several cross-border considerations, including payroll tax, social security, a potential salary split and Spain’s special non-resident regime.

Huisman Adviseurs is working with GPM Auditors to address the Spanish aspects of the situation.

This is international collaboration in practice: bringing together local expertise, trusted relationships and a shared commitment to supporting clients across borders.

International growth doesn't necessarily mean opening offices in new countries or building a global footprint.

For independent professional firms, it can mean being ready to support clients when their needs cross borders.

As clients expand into new markets, they may require access to local expertise in areas such as accounting, tax, regulatory matters or business advisory.

Independent firms can respond to these needs by building trusted relationships with professional firms in other jurisdictions.

This approach can help firms:
🌎 Support clients across borders
🌎 Access trusted local expertise
🌎 Strengthen international relationships
🌎 Expand their capabilities while remaining independent

You don't have to be everywhere to provide international capability.

Sometimes, growth starts with knowing who to turn to.

Q4 is here. Is your firm ready for what's next?

The final quarter is a natural time to look ahead, not only at your firm's immediate priorities, but also at how prepared you are to support clients as their needs evolve.

For independent professional firms, international readiness can start with a few simple questions:
• Are your clients expanding into new markets?
• Do you have trusted international connections?
• Can you access local expertise when needed?
• Are you prepared for international referrals?
• Can you respond to new opportunities while remaining independent?

International capability doesn't necessarily mean expanding your own footprint.

Sometimes, it starts with having the right relationships in place before you need them.

As you plan for the final quarter and beyond, make sure your firm is ready to think beyond its borders.

What is your firm's international priority for Q4?

Sometimes, international opportunities start with a client asking a simple question: “Can you help us in another country?”

One of Andrew Ellul Services Limited's main clients in Malta needed assistance in the UK.

Rather than navigating the challenge alone, the firm turned to its GMNI connections and collaborated with member firms in the UK.

The result? The client received the advice needed, and the required action was taken.

This is one of the practical ways international collaboration can support independent professional firms:
• A client with an international need
• A trusted connection in another market
• Local expertise where it matters
• A coordinated response

You don't need to be everywhere to support clients everywhere.

Sometimes, you simply need to know who to call.

This is the value of trusted international collaboration.

Being independent gives professional firms the freedom to build their own relationships, shape their client experience and remain focused on what matters most to their business.

But independence doesn't mean working alone.

Through trusted international relationships, independent firms can access expertise beyond their own market, collaborate with other professionals and support clients across borders, without giving up their independence.

The strength of an independent firm can lie in its ability to combine: Local expertise + Trusted relationships + International capability

The result is not a choice between staying independent and thinking globally.

Independent firms can do both.

At GMNI, professional firms connect and collaborate across borders while remaining independently owned and managed.

Stay independent. Think globally. Build trusted connections.

International collaboration doesn't require an independent firm to become a global firm.

The right professional relationships can help firms expand their capabilities, respond to international client needs and create new opportunities, while remaining independent.

Here are 5 ways international collaboration can strengthen an independent firm:
• Support clients across borders
• Access trusted local expertise
• Strengthen client relationships
• Create quality referral opportunities
• Grow while maintaining independence

At GMNI, independent professional firms connect and collaborate through a trusted international network.

Because global capability can start with the right connection.
