Crowe Spain

What Crowe Spain does

Crowe Spain is a professional services firm headquartered in Barcelona with an additional office in Madrid, operating as an independent member of the Crowe Global network — the 8th largest accounting network globally, spanning 130+ countries through 200+ independent firms. Founded in 1920, the firm employs 501-1,000 professionals and delivers four core service lines: Audit and Assurance (financial statement audits, SOC reporting, PCI compliance, benefit plan audits, pre-implementation reviews), Tax Services (federal, state and local, international, AI and tax transformation, M&A tax, private client), Advisory Services (M&A transaction advisory, accounting advisory, performance improvement, valuation, economic consulting, forensic services), and Consulting Services (technology and business transformation, cybersecurity, risk and compliance, GRC, AI governance). The firm operates proprietary technology platforms including Crowe Insight for audit workflow, Crowe Secure Information Exchange for secure client collaboration, and the Crowe Tax Data Platform for structured tax data analysis, supplemented by AI-powered data capture for complex tax documents such as partnership K-1s.

The firm serves enterprise clients across verticals including banking, financial services, fintech, insurance, healthcare, life sciences, manufacturing, private equity, technology/media/telecommunications, public sector, real estate, consumer markets, and agribusiness. Revenue is generated through professional services fees on quote-based engagements, typically structured as multi-year contracts, with engagement scope, industry, and complexity determining pricing. The go-to-market is enterprise field sales driven through direct partner relationships, RFP submissions through the corporate website, and office-level outreach. Crowe Spain maintains multi-channel marketing including thought leadership content, email newsletters, webinars, industry events, and LinkedIn presence.

Strategic technology alliances with Microsoft, NetSuite, Salesforce, ServiceNow, FloQast, and Thomson Reuters (Elite Tier ONESOURCE Certified Implementer) position the firm as a delivery partner for enterprise software implementations. The firm holds PCAOB inspection credentials, CAQ membership since inception, and was named 2025 Thomson Reuters Large Firm of the Year for innovation in the accounting profession. Crowe Y-Hire (embedded services for PE portfolio companies) and ITR Economics (economic forecasting subsidiary) extend the firm's service surface beyond traditional professional services.
