We are thrilled to announce the election of Tim Walsh as the new U.S. Chair and CEO and Atif Zaim as Deputy Chair, effective July 1, 2025. They are the right team to lead KPMG US into the future.    The last chapter has been an impressive one. Paul Knopp and Laura Newinski’s five-year term, concluding on June 30, 2025, is marked by strong growth, strategic and substantial investments in innovation and technology, increased global connectivity, continued advancement of the firm's culture and values and significant improvements in audit quality, including the firm's lowest deficiency rate since 2009.    Our newly-elected leaders are ready to continue this legacy from a position of considerable strength and agility. Both understand what the market and clients expect and demand. Both bring a shared authenticity and commitment to our firm’s people, values and culture. Integrity, excellence, and innovation don’t only define KPMG, they are an imperative for our future success in a fast-changing world.    Join us in congratulating Tim and Atif as they lead us into a bold new chapter of the KPMG story. https://lnkd.in/e5GV96g3 #KPMGLeadership #KPMGProud #FutureOfKPMG #Integrity #Excellence
