Yesterday, there was a shooting at 345 Park Avenue in New York City at the building where KPMG has offices along with other companies. Our hearts are with the victims of this horrific act and their families, as well as all of our neighbors in 345 Park. This was a terrible, tragic, and frightening event. We are incredibly grateful for the bravery of building security and law enforcement. At this time, we are not aware of any significant physical injuries to our KPMG colleagues. To our team who were in 345 Park Avenue yesterday – thank you for your bravery, patience, and compassion in a time of crisis. You are the embodiment of our very special culture at KPMG. Please stay safe and support each other. - Tim Walsh & Atif Zaim
