KPMG Asia Pacific Chairman Becomes New Deputy Chairman of International Firm
KPMG Asia Pacific Chairman Becomes New Deputy Chairman of International Firm


KPMG just appointed John B. Harrison to a newly created and critical position in firm management. Harrison 52, will become deputy chairman of KPMG International. He was most recently chairman of KPMG’s Asia Pacific region and co-chairman of the KPMG China and Hong Kong SAR firm with Carlson Tong, 53. Harrison will continue to hold both positions through March 2009, when his terms expire. Harrison joined KPMG London in 1977 with a B.Sc. in Mathematics from Durham University.

Though not clearly stated in KPMG’s announcement, Harrison will presumably report to Timothy P. Flynn, chairman, KPMG International. Michael P. Wareing remains chief executive officer of KPMG International.

We can only conjecture that the Asia-Pacific’s growing importance within the KPMG firm and prospect of their continued strong growth would propel the regional chairman to take a leading role within the KPMG global organization.
