On the morning of May 13, 2026, aiming to further deepen international business cooperation, boost high-quality development for global clients, and support Chinese enterprises in going global as well as foreign enterprises in investing in China. Mr.Yuanquan He, Chairman of ChungRui Tax Group, Ms.Dandan Guo, CEO, and Mr. Yanfu Cai , Supervisor and Partner, warmly received Mr. Matthew Howell, Global CEO of Nexia, and Ms.Young Zhang, Asia-Pacific Regional Director. The two sides engaged in in-depth consultations and candid exchanges on core topics including international business expansion, cross-border service upgrades, and global network synergy, reaching multiple points of consensus.

Ms.Dandan Guo, on behalf of ChungRui Tax Group, extended a warm welcome to the visitors and provided a introduction to ChungRui Tax Group's development history, core team members, major business segments, and service categories. With over 30 years of deep engagement in tax services, ChungRui Tax Group's core team possesses extensive cross-border tax service experience.

Mr. Matthew Howell expressed high recognition of ChungRui Tax Group's professional capabilities and sincerity in cooperation, gaining a detailed understanding of the composition of ChungRui Tax Group's international business and its cooperation with Nexia member firms across various countries.

Ms.Dandan Guo noted that as the Belt and Road Initiative continues to deepen, an increasing number of Chinese enterprises are expanding overseas, requiring our service support to follow clients abroad in lockstep. The value of Nexia's international network has become increasingly prominent. According to incomplete statistics, over the past year alone, the number of ChungRui Tax Group's overseas business consulting clients has reached the total of the previous three years, with cross-border service demand showing rapid growth momentum.

The two sides also engaged in in-depth exchanges of views on specific topics such as "enhancing client conversion rates" and "improving the timeliness of information feedback from overseas member firms to match Chinese client needs."

Mr. Matthew Howell stated that under the coordination of Asia-Pacific Regional Director Ms. Young Zhang, Nexia will collaborate with the Global China Practice Group (GCPG) to continuously roll out specialized training programs serving Chinese clients, while strengthening cooperation in global business development, jointly tapping into market (market growth), and achieving mutually beneficial win-win outcomes.

Furthermore, Mr. Matthew Howell proactively inquired about ChungRui Tax Group's development needs, carefully listened to suggestions and feedback from ChungRui Tax Group attendees on how Nexia can further support ChungRui Tax Group's development, and solicited opinions on future cooperation between the two sides.

Chairman  Yuanquan He emphasized that ChungRui Tax Group is willing to leverage its resources and professional capabilities as support to deeply integrate into Nexia's global network. At the same time, it is also willing to rely on its deeply cultivated advantages in the Chinese market to provide strong support for Nexia's network (network layout) in the Asia-Pacific region and China, achieving two-way empowerment.

Nexia attaches great importance to the Chinese market and ChungRui Tax Group's core partner status, and will fully support ChungRui Tax Group's international business development. Leveraging Nexia's professional network resources covering 125 countries and regions worldwide, it can rapidly mobilize high-quality local tax and financial service forces to provide ChungRui Tax Group's clients with "one-stop" cross-border tax and financial services, resolving tax compliance challenges in enterprises' overseas expansion. It will also provide ChungRui Tax Group with more global cooperation opportunities, cutting-edge professional technical support, and international market channels, working together to build a new ecosystem of "China + Global" cross-border tax and financial services.

This meeting serves both as a deepening and consolidation of the two sides' past cooperation achievements, and as a brand new starting point for opening global synergistic development and jointly building a new ecosystem for cross-border tax and financial services.

Going forward, ChungRui Tax Group will take this meeting as an opportunity to continuously deepen cooperation with Nexia's global network and member firms in various countries. Based on the globalization development needs of Chinese enterprises, it will integrate ChungRui Tax Group's professional advantages with Nexia's global network resources to provide domestic and foreign clients with more efficient, more professional, and more comprehensive cross-border tax and financial solutions. In the process of serving Chinese enterprises "going global" and foreign enterprises "coming to China," it will demonstrate the responsibility and commitment of Chinese tax and financial professional institutions, help build an open, synergistic, and win-win global tax and financial service new pattern, and work hand in hand with Nexia to create a new development landscape!
