RSM US LLP, a provider of assurance, tax, and consulting services, has announced a $1bn investment over the next three years to expand its artificial intelligence (AI) strategy.

The investment aims to accelerate “innovation” and deliver “transformative” value for clients and professionals, according to the company.

It will focus on integrating agentic AI platforms—intelligent systems that autonomously perform complex tasks alongside humans—across RSM’s operations and services.

The announcement comes as RSM prepares to finalise a transatlantic merger, forming a partner-owned, multinational organisation spanning Canada, El Salvador, India, Ireland the UK and the US, with 23,000 professionals and $5bn in combined annual revenue.

Brian Becker, managing partner and CEO of RSM US LLP, said: “AI continues to be a strategic imperative for RSM, and our significant investment enables us to move decisively from exploration to execution, driving real outcomes for our people and our clients through responsible, business-led solutions.

“We’re not simply adopting new technologies—we’re transforming how we deliver value, combining deeper insights, greater agility and an unwavering focus on quality and impact.”

The investment will support strategic initiatives over the next three years, including the development and investment in industry-specific AI tools and talent, and pursuing strategic ventures to build scalable AI frameworks and infrastructure.

It will also involve fully integrating agentic AI into RSM’s assurance, tax, and consulting services to optimise performance, unlock efficiencies, improve quality, and accelerate growth for clients.

Additionally, RSM plans to empower its talent with agentic AI tools to enhance productivity and professional growth while enabling faster and more innovative solutions that deliver deeper insights and personalised support to clients.

The investment will further expand agentic AI-driven solutions throughout the client lifecycle to elevate the overall client experience, the company said.

Sergio de la Fe, enterprise digital leader and partner at RSM US LLP, said: “Our $1bn investment is fuelling groundbreaking innovation to empower our talent and clients to achieve unprecedented performance.

“This commitment to our digital first strategy reflects a sustained journey that will continue to evolve well beyond this initial investment as we drive market-leading solutions and redefine how the middle market navigates the future.”
