Arthur Andersen Car Coaster
Add a quiet business-history reference to every drive with this Arthur Andersen LLP car coaster. The firm began in 1913 in Chicago and grew from a small accounting practice into a defining Big Five name, leaving a lasting legacy across auditing, consulting, and finance. A distinctive auto accessory for former Andersen people, accountants on the go, and collectors who enjoy corporate nostalgia with a Chicago connection.
Arthur Andersen LLP was a Chicago-based American accounting firm providing auditing, tax advising, consulting and other professional services to large corporations. Arthur E. Andersen and Clarence DeLany founded Andersen, DeLany & Co. in 1913; after DeLany resigned, it became Arthur Andersen & Co. in 1918. Its first client was Milwaukee's Joseph Schlitz Brewing Company, and the firm opened a Milwaukee office in 1915. Andersen led the business until his death in 1947 and promoted standardized training and high accounting standards. Consulting expanded rapidly in the 1970s and 1980s. In 1989, Arthur Andersen and Andersen Consulting became separate units of Andersen Worldwide Société Coopérative. Arbitration granted Andersen Consulting independence in 2000; it adopted the Accenture name on January 1, 2001, while Arthur Andersen rebranded as Andersen. Once among the Big Five firms, Andersen collapsed in 2002 following the Enron and WorldCom scandals. Its U.S. operations were largely sold to other firms, while former operations and alumni helped form successors including Accenture, Protiviti and Andersen Tax.
