Research and Consultancy in Malaysia

There are many consultancy firms, working in most specialities, including management, auditing, tax, engineering, financial services and information technology. There are numerous research consultancy firms, particularly market research firms. The globally dominant ‘Big Four’ professional services firms are experiencing great competition, especially in the sphere of public-listed companies (PLC). Many clients are moving to other mid-tier multinational organisations, or native organisations. Outside this financial sphere there are other large players such as Accenture, the famous management and outsourcing firm, and McKinsey & Company, who have helped the government with public policy and attracting new, innovative industries into the country.
