Small Big 4

BPC Partners is a Small Big 4, but what does this mean? 

All of the Big 4 firms originate from the accounting industry – in fact, they are usually referred to as “Big 4 accounting firms”. They dominate the market – as of 2023, 497 of the S&P 500 firms are audited by one of these firms – an astounding collective market share of 99%. However, the Big 4 wasn’t always the Big 4 – for most of the 20th century, the accounting industry was dominated by the “Big 8” firms – Deloitte Haskins & Sells, Touche Ross, Ernst & Whinney, Arthur Young, Peat Marwick Mitchell, Price Waterhouse, Coopers & Lybrand, and Arthur Andersen. As you may have guessed from the names, numerous mergers reduced the Big 8 to Big 5: Arthur Andersen, Deloitte & Touche, Ernst & Young, KPMG), and PricewaterhouseCoopers. And then in 2002, with the Enron scandal, Arthur Andersen met its demise and its practices were split between the remaining firms, now called “the Big 4”.
