Accountancy announces merger with Irish firm
Wed, 15 May 2024 | MERGER
Audit, tax and business advisory firm MHA has announced a merger with Ireland-based accountancy and advisory Roberts Nathan. The new partnership, which will take effect from July 1 2024, will be known as Baker Tilly Ireland and follows MHA’s recent merger with MHA Moore & Smalley.
Roberts Nathan has offices in Dublin and Cork and the merger will combine the company’s local expertise with a significant international presence, majorly strengthening its capacity to offer a comprehensive range of services.
Rakesh Shaunak, Managing Partner and Chairman of MHA, commented: "Expanding into Ireland is a significant step in MHA's strategic growth plans given the country's strong trading ties and business connections with the UK and mainland Europe, as well as its thriving business community, and resilient economy.”
"Our focus in Ireland will remain on supporting local and international SMEs, enabling local clients to take advantage of the international footprint of Baker Tilly International, and also allowing our UK clients new opportunities to enter the Irish Market.”
Shaunak added that Roberts Nathan’s “growth mindset, entrepreneurial spirit and highly personal ethos” aligned "perfectly” with MHA’s own approach.
Roberts Nathan Managing Partner Vivian Nathan will become Baker Tilly’s new Regional Chief Operations Officer following the merger.
Vivian Nathan said that the merger marked a “pivotal milestone” for the company and would enable the firms " to leverage our combined strengths to provide more extensive services and innovative solutions to our clients while creating significant growth opportunities for our team."
The latest merger continues a busy period of growth for MHA, with the company opening offices in Scotland and Wales in 2023, before announcing the merger with MHA Moore & Smalley at the start of 2024.
