Meet SBC Member RISE PARTNERS: Audit, Tax and Advisory Expertise in Germany

18th Jun 2026


Christian Seuffert and Alexander Riha, RISE PARTNERS

Audit, tax, accounting and advisory support in Germany


Founded by Christian Seuffert and Alexander Riha, RISE PARTNERS provides audit, tax, accounting and business advisory services, with an emphasis on practical, commercially focused advice.

Under their leadership, the firm has developed a reputation for combining technical expertise with a responsive and relationship-driven approach, helping clients address both domestic and international business challenges.
This combination of local knowledge and broader international experience can be particularly valuable for businesses entering the German market, as well as for German businesses developing activities overseas.

Supporting businesses across borders

As businesses increasingly operate across more than one jurisdiction, their requirements can extend beyond the capabilities of any single domestic adviser.

Tax, accounting, audit and wider advisory matters often need to be considered both locally and in the context of a business's wider international activities.

Through SBC Global Alliance, RISE PARTNERS can collaborate with trusted independent professional firms in other countries, helping clients access appropriate local expertise wherever international opportunities or requirements arise.

The firm explains the value of this international collaboration:

“The personal relationships within SBC Global Alliance create real value for our clients and our firm. Knowing we can rely on trusted professionals around the world gives us confidence when supporting international assignments and opportunities.”

Local expertise. International collaboration.

RISE PARTNERS illustrates the approach at the heart of SBC Global Alliance: independent professional firms retaining their local identity and client relationships while being able to draw upon trusted expertise internationally.

For businesses with interests in Germany, this provides access to experienced in-country audit, tax, accounting and advisory support, alongside the ability to connect that advice with professional expertise in other jurisdictions where required.

SBC Global Alliance is pleased to have Christian, Alexander and the wider RISE PARTNERS team as part of our international community and looks forward to continuing to strengthen collaboration across the Alliance.
