What Pkf Attest does

PKF Attest (legal name: PKF ATTEST SERVICIOS PROFESIONALES, S.L.) is a privately held, multidisciplinary professional services firm headquartered in Bilbao, Spain, with 1,000+ professionals across 12 offices nationwide. Founded in 2001, the firm is ranked as the 9th largest professional services firm in Spain and operates as an independent member firm of the PKF International global network, which spans 150+ countries and 480 offices. Its service portfolio spans audit and assurance, legal and tax advisory, financial advisory (M&A, transaction services, debt restructuring, capital markets), management consulting, technology services (including CRM/Salesforce implementation), public R&D incentives, and restructuring and insolvency proceedings.

The firm targets large enterprises, public administration, and sector-specific industries (automotive, energy, healthcare, retail, financial services, technology), with a go-to-market model built on direct, relationship-driven engagement through its nationwide office network. Named clients include Santillana, Grupo Arania, Asociación de Marketing de España, Applus, Clariant, Adif, IMA, Fraternidad Muprespa, OHLA Group, Metro de Madrid, and Norvento Enerxia. Technology infrastructure includes Microsoft Azure cloud usage, Microsoft Gold Partner status, Salesforce and Mailchimp integrations, and an AI-powered website chatbot; the firm also holds ISO 27001, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ENS, and GDPR certifications, supporting both regulated client work and public sector engagements.

Revenue is generated through quote-based professional services fees across service lines, with multi-year contract cadence and pricing driven by engagement scope and seniority. The firm is targeting over €100 million in total billing, with the legal and tax area alone projected at €28 million (up 15.4% year-over-year). Growth is being driven by a combination of organic expansion and selective acquisitions — notably the January 2025 integration of Heroforge and Czentric (technology consulting) and the November 2025 incorporation of Castillero Auditores (Aragon region). Managing Partner Erick Berguer has publicly confirmed the firm will remain independent and decline external investment.
