Agem Consultores awarded Business Advisory Expert of the Year

October 2020

Russell Bedford’s San Sebastián member firm, Agem Consultores, has been awarded Business Advisory Expert of the Year in Spain 2020 by Global Advisory Experts Annual Awards.

Global Advisory Experts (GAE) is a reference guide for professionals at an international level, which annually recommends experts by business areas and country.

Agem has more than 30 years’ experience dedicated to advising managers and entrepreneurs in management, business advisory, legal and tax matters. Its multidisciplinary team guarantees in-depth knowledge of the various activities that make up these areas, such as business succession, mergers or acquisitions, restructuring, compliance, due diligence or international taxation, among a large number of operations.

Speaking about the announcement, Asier Ilzarbe, director at Agem said: “Obviously, this type of recognition does not resolve the problems that affect us all in these difficult times. However, it does provide a boost for our firm and encouragement to remain strong in tackling the day-to-day challenges we meet; while reinforcing our brand position in terms of how our current and potential clients may view us.”

He added: “There is no doubt that without belonging to an international network such as Russell Bedford International, we would not have any possibility of aspiring to this type of recognition. Therefore, we thank the Russell Bedford network for their continued support and for the part of the award that corresponds to the network.”

Russell Bedford’s CEO, Stephen Hamlet added: “I’d like to extend my sincere congratulations to all at Agem on receiving this wonderful accolade. It was very kind of Agem director, Asier Ilzarbe, to acknowledge his firm's membership of Russell Bedford as a contributing factor in receiving the award. It says a lot of a firm’s character to not only remain strong in challenging times, but also to thrive and, in this instance, pick up quite a notable award in the process. Congratulations to all involved in receiving this well-deserved award!”
