Accountancy firm reveals Irish merger plan – months after Scottish expansion

Accountancy firm MHA – which recently expanded into Scotland – has now revealed plans for a move into Ireland.

At the end of last year, MHA established its first Scottish presence through a merger with Aberdeen-based Meston Reid & Co. This was followed in February when the business merged with Geoghegans in Edinburgh.




The firm – the UK’s 13th largest – has not ruled out further expansion into Scotland.

However, Irish accountancy and advisory firm Roberts Nathan has today announced its intention to merge with MHA, effective from 1 July, with plans to create 100 new jobs.

Vivian Nathan, managing partner of Roberts Nathan, who will become the new regional chief operations officer, commented: “This proposed merger marks a pivotal milestone, enabling us to leverage our combined strengths to provide more extensive services and innovative solutions to our clients while creating significant growth opportunities for our team.”

Rakesh Shaunak, managing partner and chair of MHA, said: “Expanding into Ireland is a significant step in MHA’s strategic growth plans due to its strong trading ties and business connections with the UK and Europe, plus its thriving business community, and resilient economy.

“Our focus will remain on supporting the local and international SMEs, plus growing the owner-managed business client base, enabling them to take advantage of the international footprint of Baker Tilly, and also allowing our UK clients new opportunities into the Irish market.”
