How strong is Monitor Deloitte in the Middle East and how are they perceived in the market?

It seems they haven't been growing with the market over the last years, why is that?

Hi A,

In general, I need to say that Delloite in that area is not as strong and with good reputation as they are in the US or other geographies. So it's rather a boutique firm in Dubai or Middle East in general.

Hope it helps,


Best,

André

Hello,

You are right, they are growing a lot in that area but the brand recognition is still far from MBB, closer to a tier-2 company. THeir growth is also due to the fact that they are paid less than the big consulting companies.

Hi! They've been growing like on steroids in Saudi Arabia, especially with their technology division (digital transformations). They also opened their Digital Centre in Riyadh last year.

Thanks for sharing your perspective, Daniel! Ok, so rather than fly in strategy consultants from Dubai they hire them in the Riyadh office directly?

Agree that their reputation is not as strong in other regions outside of US. Still perceived at the lower end of tier 2 at best probably.

Hi, it has a good brand and they work with top clients. However, in strategy consulting, MBB and tier 2 (ATK, OW, S&, RB) are better and are facing great growths these years in Middle East
