Klynveld Kraayenhof & Co.
Klynveld Kraayenhof & Co. (KKC) was a Dutch accountancy firm founded in 1917 by Piet Klijnveld and Jaap Kraayenhof, who was one of Klynveld's former employees at another firm.[1] The firm specialized in banking and exporting and kept its independence by serving Dutch clients who were expanding throughout Europe and South America. In 1979, KKC merged with Deutsche Treuhand-Gesellschaft (DTG) and McLintock Main Lafrentz to form Klynveld Main Goerdeler (KMG).[2] In 1987 KMG joined forces with Peat Marwick International (PMI) in the first mega-merger of large accounting firms and formed what is now known today as KPMG LLP.[3]
