Affiliate Membership

 

An international platform for emerging professional service firms

Our Affiliate membership proposition is designed for agile and growth-oriented firms who have identified the importance of the international business opportunity this brings.

The agile and fast-growing professional service firm often has equally ambitious clients whose growth plans can be unrestricted by geography. An AGN Affiliate is likely to be an accounting or financial advisory business, often early in their life cycle, typically looking to build their annual revenues toward the US$1 million mark, and with a headcount up to the early 20s.

A commitment to high professional standards and client service excellence is of course pre-requisite.

Specialist Communities focused on Outcomes

Going Global Made Simple

If this sounds like your firm and you need to globalise your client service proposition, simply complete the initial online application form, subscribe to the monthly fee and become listed as a ‘Provisional Affiliate’ in the AGN Global Membership Directory.

After successful completion of a due diligence process, you will be confirmed as an Affiliate member ie. ‘Provisional’ will fall away. If your firm doesn’t fit the criteria, you will receive a full refund of the subscription fees paid.

Apply NOW! The application process

Going global and becoming an affiliate member is as simple as clicking the button below and completing the Provisional Affiliate Assessment Form.

After requesting some basic information about your business, we then ask you to register your credit/debit card for the monthly fee. If you initially meet our criteria, the ‘provisional’ directory listing will occur, usually, within few days.  Our due diligence process will then be carried out, and on successful conclusion you will become an affiliate member (non-provisional), in less than 3 months. If you do not meet our criteria at any stage of the application, we will refund any monies paid.

Please be aware that AGN Affiliate membership is subject to our due diligence process. You will need to confirm your qualifications/licencing, “fit and proper” professional standing and maintenance of high professional standards. AGN operates remote monitoring of these areas and requires your annual reconfirmation of the same.
