Each DFK member is an independent legal entity in its own country. DFK International is a non-profit making consortium of independent firms and does not itself practice in the field of accountancy and does not provide business advisory service.

The association was founded in July 1962 by Ronald Warlow, then London partner of Edward Thomas Pearson & Son and John Douglass, then senior partner of J.W. Douglass, Gilder & Co. of Sydney Australia. They were soon joined by Francois-Maurice Richard from Paris, who was at the time president of the International Congress of Accountants.
After a period of change which saw some firms coming, going or changing their names, the association name was eventually changed to:
D - Douglass
F - F Richard
K - Kidsons
It was incorporated as a UK company in 2015.
