Baker Tilly Santiago

The Santiago office opened in 2013 as our first office in South America.

Our forensic accountants and consultants are fluent in English, Spanish and Portuguese and work with insurers and lawyers throughout Latin America on a variety of losses, with a focus on business interruption.

Particular specializations include stock losses, marine cargo, and product liability and recall.

Following the Chile earthquake in 2010, we worked closely with local and international loss adjusters as part of a catastrophe response team.

Who we help

Insurance

We help insurance companies understand the true economic value of major claims. Our ‘one firm’ global approach, and willingness to put boots on the ground wherever needed, ensures that we comprehensively understand the full implications of an event.

Legal

Leading law firms the world over engage us to bring our expert knowledge to bear on difficult cases where damages are disputed. We work thoroughly yet efficiently and present our findings in a compelling manner that stands up under the most rigorous scrutiny.

Corporate

Public and private companies appreciate the depth of our understanding of how business works, both within and across industries. Combined with our truly global approach, responsive structure and independence, this gives us a real edge in providing value-added services to our corporate clients.

How we help

Quantification

In quantifying a disputed amount or a financial loss, we question the underlying assumptions, identify the relevant issues and thoroughly examine the detail. Our depth and breadth of industry experience and commercial acumen enables us to really understand whether the numbers make sense and will stand up under the toughest scrutiny.

Investigation

We conduct manual and technological investigations of data and events to determine what actually occurred and how this impacts a financial outcome. For each particular set of circumstances, we apply the most appropriate and efficient investigative approach.

Valuation

Valuation is about more than quantifying the intrinsic worth of an asset or business. We integrate corporate finance, accounting and market research to help businesses balance opportunity with risk. As specialists, not generalists, our valuations are free of conflicts of interest and in accordance with the relevant rules and regulations.
