Taipei, Taiwan – 4 November 2025 – MDD, the leading international forensic accounting firm, has announced the opening of its Taiwan office, which becomes its eighth location in Asia Pacific. This strategic move reflects the firms’ growing footprint in the region, driven by the increase in claims activity in Taiwan. The new presence will enhance MDD’s ability to deliver expert forensic accounting services to clients, within the Taiwanese insurance and litigation markets.
Rachel Cai, Director, will lead the Taiwan office. Since joining MDD in 2008, Rachel has held key positions in the organisation’s Singapore, Tokyo and Hong Kong locations, bringing extensive regional expertise to her leadership. Rachel’s experience in quantifying economic damages and managing complex claims has been instrumental in supporting major loss events and catastrophe responses throughout Taiwan – work which will continue in her new position.
Paul McGowan, CEO of MDD, said: “The launch of our Taiwan office marks an exciting milestone for MDD, as we broaden our forensic accounting footprint across Asia Pacific. The new presence allows us to deliver locally informed solutions, backed by global capabilities. Rachel’s leadership and significant expertise in the regional market will be pivotal, as we build our presence in Taiwan.”
Rachel Cai, Director, MDD, Taiwan, said: “I am looking forward to leading MDD’s expansion into Taiwan and to further contribute to the firm’s continued growth across Asia Pacific. As demand for forensic accounting expertise continues to rise in Taiwan, our new office will boost our ability to collaborate more closely with clients and deliver agile, high-quality support, tailored to regional needs.”
MDD is part of leading specialist professional services and technology business, Davies. The expansion aligns with Davies’ Vision 2030, reinforcing its commitment to building resilient, regionally diverse teams, in geographies facing increasing complexity and risk.
