Welcome to our 2024 Global Annual Review! At HLB, our purpose is to create a positive and sustainable impact for our clients, our people, and the communities we serve. Throughout 2024, this intention has continued to guide our actions as we addressed the challenges and opportunities of an evolving global business landscape. I am proud to share how we have advanced our goals through innovation, inclusivity, collaboration, and human-centred leadership.

To kick off the year, we launched the new HLB strategy, Innovative People, Brighter Futures. This embodies our commitment to developing a culture of innovation and collaboration that empowers every individual within our community to drive lasting change. I am proud to announce our growth of 9% over 2024, bringing our global combined revenue to $5.96 billion. Our global ranking has remained at 8th position which points to the remarkable progress we have made together.

As we continue our journey, our focus remains clear. By focusing on innovation and how it has the capacity to transform how we work, we will achieve our growth objectives while fulfilling our larger purpose of positively impacting our clients, people, and communities.

Together, through trust, leadership, and shared ambition, we make it happen.

A core theme of 2024 has been the rapid evolution of technology, particularly artificial intelligence (AI). HLB has taken a leading role in this shift, helping our people to utilise AI’s potential to advance efficiency, creativity, and strategic decision-making.

While these advancements bring significant opportunities, they also introduce new challenges, particularly in the areas of cybersecurity and governance. HLB has proactively addressed these concerns throughout 2024; by balancing innovation with protection, HLB is a trusted partner in navigating the complexities of digital transformation while driving sustainable growth.

We have made steps internally for a better future for all our communities. Through our service lines, we have helped clients integrate sustainability efforts into their operations. Businesses that align purpose with profitability are set to thrive in an increasingly conscientious and environmentally aware world.

HLB remains committed to empowering our network with the tools, insights, and collaborations necessary to lead with purposeful impact. A focus on technology, sustainability, and client-centricity will be key pillars as we continue to position ourselves as the challenger brand among mid-tier firms.
