Roland Berger is a global strategy consulting firm headquartered in Munich, with 50 offices in 36 countries. The company was founded under the name Roland Berger Strategy Consultants in 1967 by Roland Berger.〔 In 2011, the company's sales were roughly US$1.2 billion. The company, with around 2,400 employees worldwide, is an independent partnership wholly owned by its approximately 220 partners. Roland Berger operates as a generalist strategy consultancy〔"(More bang for your buck )", ''The Financial Times'', 19 November 2007〕 and advises clients on management issues ranging from strategy development to performance improvement. Roland Berger advises in the fields of restructuring and marketing, with a focus on the automobile industry and the capital goods sector.〔 ==History== Company founder Roland Berger established the firm in 1967, after four years of working for Gennaro Boston Associati in Boston and Milan, Italy. By 1987 the firm became the largest consultancy in Germany, with sales over DM 100 million.〔 To finance overseas expansion, Berger then allowed Deutsche Bank to take a minority stake, rising to 75.1% in 1988. This proved to be a problem in the United States, where the Federal Reserve Bank did not allow subsidiaries of commercial banks to practise consulting, so the company's managers bought back Deutsche Bank's shares in 1998 and 2000. In November 2010, the firm reached an advanced stage in talks to merge with Deloitte's consulting arm, but withdrew after Roland Berger's partners decided instead to invest more of their own resources. In 2013 the partners requested the executive committee to consider "external options" and a possible sale — Ernst & Young reportedly made an offer which was eventually rejected by the partner group.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.firmsconsulting.com/consulting-rankings/roland-berger-ceo-charles-edouard-bouee/ )〕〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Roland Berger set to go it alone )〕 In June 2015, Roland Berger acquired the entire team from German consulting firm FMC Consultants GmbH. The company announced a rebranding of its business in September 2015, introducing a logo it describes as a "titanium B" combined with the lettering "Roland Berger", dropping "Strategy Consultants" from the company name. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Roland Berger (company)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
