Bentleys joins Kreston International
National accounting firm Bentleys Australia has announced it will this year join Kreston International - a global network of independent accounting firms based in the UK and operational in 95 countries.
According to Bentleys Australia chief executive Graeme Blockley, joining Kreston International represented a perfect fit for the company.
"Kreston is a global network of firms that can provide continuity to our clients throughout the world and deliver to them the outstanding service they have come to expect from Bentleys at home," he said.
"Building upon a complete brand refresh in 2011, this initiative further strengthens Bentleys' growth strategy and plans to become one of Australia's top 10 accounting networks," Blockley said.
Commenting on the move, Kreston International chief executive Jon Lisby said the arrangement added considerably to the capability and resources of Kreston's Australia New Zealand Group, which also includes nine individual accounting firms.
