Since January 2019, DORNBACH has been an official member of SW International—a globally recognized network originally founded in China—significantly enhancing its international reach and competitiveness. The cooperation agreement was signed in October 2018 at the SW International Partner Conference in Chongqing.
SW International is a global network of independent auditing and consulting firms. According to the Global Survey Report 2026 published by the International Accounting Bulletin (IAB), SW International is ranked among the top 20 consulting networks worldwide.
The network currently comprises 22 member firms located in China, Hong Kong (China), Singapore, Japan, Australia, India, Thailand, Pakistan, Egypt, Malaysia, the United Kingdom, Indonesia, and Germany. Globally, it operates 112 offices and employs more than 12,000 professionals. SW is particularly active in the Chinese market, where it has established a well-developed network across all major regions and built strong cooperative relationships within the industry.
As the first official member in Europe, DORNBACH offers its clients extensive opportunities to participate in the dynamically growing markets of Asia through its collaboration with SW International. For this purpose, a subsidiary, SW Germany GmbH, was established in Frankfurt am Main. This entity combines expertise in auditing, tax advisory, transaction advisory, and (through cooperation partners) legal advisory services, ensuring tailored client support by leveraging linguistic and cultural advantages.
