People and Values

As a firm, we uphold integrity and commitment to our clients. We value our long-term relationships based on client trust, open communication, personal attention and timely and responsive service. We have significant experience with family businesses and are very proud to be serving many second-generation and even some third-generation clients.

We also place great emphasis on quality and professional standards. All of our professional staff members continually attend external and internal professional development courses and workshops. We value our accreditation as an approved training office for CA students.

History

Our founder, Yik Fung Au-Yeung, started his first accounting practice in Hong Kong in 1961. After immigrating to Canada, Yik Fung opened his office in Vancouver in 1972. His daughter, Yvonne, joined the firm in 1987 and later, they formed a partnership in the name of Au-Yeung & Company. In 2007, AY Au-Yeung & Company LLP was formed, along with the admission of new partners to our firm.

Originally, the Canadian practice was developed from Yik Fung’s long-standing business and personal contacts in Asia. Because of our firm’s roots, continuing exchange, and understanding of business practices and cultures in Asia and Canada, we enjoyed growth as Pacific Rim trade expanded over the years. Steadily, the firm has also formed many new relationships with local businesses. We will continue to build on our long history and strong foundation, while diversifying our practice and clientele.

Today, our clients include private companies, non-profit organizations, joint ventures, partnerships, individuals and trusts, engaged in a variety of business activities including real estate, investments, wholesale, retail, manufacturing, travel and services.

Community Services

Community involvement is an area to which we are strongly committed. For many years, we have been a major sponsor of the Vancouver Chinatown Festival and its Youth Talent Competition, as well as fundraising events held by the Canadian Cancer Society. Our firm has also participated as a sponsor or donor for fund-raising events held by the St. Paul’s Hospital Foundation, VGH and UBC Hospital Foundation, BC Cancer Agency and the Chinese Cultural Centre. Each year, our entire firm participates in the Walk with the Dragon, raising funds for SUCCESS and garnering the Gold Award for Group Pledge Collection.
