The Parker Russell South East Asian Forum 2026, held in Saigon, Vietnam, from 6–8 August, was very well attended, bringing together managing partners, member firms and senior professionals from across South East Asia and the wider Parker Russell International network.
The Forum provided an excellent platform for lively and constructive discussions on some of the key issues affecting our profession and our clients. Topics included Pillar Two and the global minimum tax, audit quality management systems, developments within the accounting and audit profession, and strengthening cross-border cooperation and business opportunities between Parker Russell member firms.
We were delighted to have Junaid Subhani – FCA, Vice President for South East Asia, in attendance, supporting the continued development and growth of Parker Russell across the region.
The Forum also welcomed Elena Lynnyk, Managing Partner of Parker Russell Ukraine, and Mansour Sokrab, Managing Partner of Parker Russell UAE. Their participation demonstrated the strong international relationships and spirit of cooperation that extend throughout the Parker Russell global network. Jason Parker, CEO of Parker Russell International, was also in attendance and contributed to discussions on the future development of the network, greater international collaboration and the opportunities available to member firms through closer cross-border cooperation.
A special thank you goes to Parker Russell Vietnam for organising and hosting such an excellent event. We would particularly like to express our sincere appreciation to Toan Nguyen, Managing Partner of Parker Russell Vietnam, for his leadership, warm hospitality and commitment to making the Forum such a successful and memorable occasion.
The excellent attendance, open discussions and exchange of knowledge throughout the Forum demonstrated the strength of Parker Russell International and our shared commitment to quality, collaboration, professional excellence and sustainable international growth.
Thank you to everyone who travelled to Saigon and contributed to the success of the Parker Russell South East Asian Forum 2026.
We look forward to building on the discussions, strengthening relationships between our member firms and continuing to create new opportunities for cooperation across South East Asia and throughout our international network.
Stronger connections. Greater collaboration. One global network.
