Among the qualities Grant Thornton brings to every engagement:
Our firm’s professionals deliver a quality-focused experience that goes beyond what’s expected, and that propels people and organizations to reach their full potential.
The global pandemic and resulting economic slowdown has impacted almost every company and industry. During this period of uncertainty Grant Thornton has shown up for our clients and their businesses, delivering the business acumen, diverse partnerships and personalized counsel they need from Grant Thornton.
Providing our clients reliable, objective and actionable information about the domestic and global economies is a critically important challenge for Grant Thornton professionals—and in fiscal year 2020, meeting it was more complex than at any time in recent history. We rely in large part on the guidance of Diane Swonk, Grant Thornton’s chief economist.
As one of the world’s most respected macroeconomists, Swonk is an expert on the labor market, monetary policy and structural changes that are distinct from economic cycles. Her work has moved Grant Thornton into the critical space of economic advising and forecasting.
Before joining the firm in 2018, Swonk ran her own consulting firm, served in leadership roles with a number of large financial firms, and served two terms as an advisor to the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office. In addition, as a distinguished fellow and past president of the National Association for Business Economics (NABE), she serves on an advisory committee to the Federal Reserve Board and belongs to the Council on Foreign Relations.
All of Diane Swonk’s work can be found on the firm’s website, on its Economic Insights & Analysis blog.
Grant Thornton clients don’t merely buy products and services—they’re business leaders who come to us with problems to solve. We view business problems through three distinct but overlapping lenses: the industry in which the client operates; the services we offer that can meet a need; and the geographic location where we will serve the client.

At Grant Thornton, quality is at the core of how we do business and serve our clients: not just as auditors, but in every part of our firm.
In our Audit practice, we achieved remarkable and record-setting outcomes for quality in fiscal year 2020:
Our commitment to audit quality goes beyond any one inspection result, and drives us to continuously update our training, technology and processes to support future improvements.
At Grant Thornton we collaborate closely to solve problems, pivot quickly as needs change and care enough to have tough conversations. These characteristics are quality exemplified and are part of how our firm makes business more personal and builds trust into every result.
Grant Thornton’s Public Policy team has always worked to monitor and influence regulatory and statutory developments. But our activities took on a new importance this year as COVID-19 spread across the country, slowing the economy and causing the government to take an expanded role in business and society.
