Baker Tilly

What Baker Tilly does

Baker Tilly Israel (legal name: Horowitz Sabo Tevet & Cohen Tabach) is a privately held partnership accounting and advisory firm headquartered in Ramat Gan, Israel, founded in 1999 by Dr. Eyal Horowitz. The firm operates as the Israeli member of Baker Tilly International, one of the world's top 10 accounting networks (147 countries, 50,000+ professionals, $6.8B global annual revenue). Baker Tilly Israel employs 70+ staff, including 10 partners, and serves more than 1,500 active clients across central Israel, with practice areas spanning audit and assurance, corporate and international tax, bookkeeping and payroll, outsourced CFO services, internal audit and forensic investigations, M&A advisory, strategic consulting, and a dedicated crypto and digital-asset division. The firm delivers services on a partner-led basis using standard accounting platforms (Priority ERP, SAP, QuickBooks) and combines deep sector specialization in hi-tech, real estate, and cryptocurrency with cross-border capacity routed through the Baker Tilly International network.

The business model is fee-for-service professional services with engagement-level pricing (annual audits from 8,000 to 60,000+ ILS; comprehensive mid-market packages at 4,000–10,000 ILS per month; sole-proprietor services at 300–800 ILS per month), free initial consultation as a lead-conversion mechanism, and a go-to-market built on partner-led direct sales supplemented by content-driven inbound marketing (Hebrew-language blog, LinkedIn, Facebook, YouTube, SEO). Customer segmentation is hybrid, with mid-market and growth-stage Ltd. companies as the primary segment and public companies, technology startups, real estate, crypto holders, government entities, small businesses, and cross-border businesses as secondary segments.

The firm's strategic posture is defined by a November 2024 merger with crypto-specialist CPA firm Witt Chan Aharon (Yitzhakman Ehrenfeld Rabinovitch), which materially strengthened its digital-asset practice and has supported over $100M in cryptocurrency funds being introduced into Israeli banks. Operationally, the firm differentiates through senior-partner involvement on every engagement, forensic expertise led by a former Deputy Commander of Lahav 433, and real-estate tax leadership by a partner with 37+ years of experience. Brand standing is supported by rankings in BDI Code (12th) and Dun's 100. At the global level, Baker Tilly and Moss Adams announced a 2025 merger backed by $1.5 billion in Blackstone-led private credit financing, a development at the network tier rather than the Israel entity specifically.

Expansion highlights6 records

Direct peers

• BDO Israel: BDO's Israel member firm is a direct peer: mid-tier accounting/audit/tax/consulting firm serving Israeli growth-stage companies, with similar service mix (audit, tax, advisory) and comparable positioning between Big 4 and small local firms.
• Grant Thornton Israel: Grant Thornton's Israel member firm competes head-to-head with Baker Tilly Israel in the mid-market audit, tax, and advisory space; similar global-network affiliation model and overlapping client segments in hi-tech and growth-stage Ltd. companies.
• Mazars Israel: Mid-tier international accounting network with Israel presence; competes with Baker Tilly Israel for cross-border tax, audit, and advisory work for Israeli mid-market and inbound foreign-investor clients.

Broad incumbents

• KPMG Israel (Somekh Chaikin): One of the Big 4 in Israel; competes with Baker Tilly Israel for large public-company audits, IPO advisory, and SOX/ISOX work, but at materially greater scale across all service lines.
• Deloitte Israel (Brightman Almagor Zohar): Big 4 in Israel; significant overlap with Baker Tilly Israel in audit, tax, consulting, and M&A advisory for mid-market and large clients, with a much broader service portfolio and international footprint.
• Ernst & Young Israel (Kost Forer Gabbay & Kasierer): Big 4 in Israel; a broad incumbent competing across audit, tax, transaction advisory, and consulting — overlapping with Baker Tilly Israel particularly in hi-tech and public-company engagements.
• PwC Israel (Yael Anti-Fraud and accounting services): Big 4 in Israel; competes with Baker Tilly Israel on audit, tax, and advisory mandates for Israeli corporates and multinational subsidiaries, with substantially larger bench and global resources.
• Moss Adams (US): US top-15 accounting firm merging with Baker Tilly (US) in 2025; a broad incumbent in audit, tax, and wealth management for US mid-market and high-net-worth clients — increasingly relevant to Baker Tilly Israel's cross-border work with US tech and VC clients.

Emerging players

• MHA Baker Tilly (UK): UK accounting platform that acquired Baker Tilly South-East Europe and Ireland in 2025; an emerging player within the broader Baker Tilly International orbit that competes for cross-border referrals flowing through the network.

Others

• PKF Israel (legacy PKF member firms in Israel): Israel previously operated in the PKF International network before joining Baker Tilly International; legacy PKF members globally are adjacent peers — sharing mid-market positioning but no longer direct competitors in Israel.
