Athlone based firm announces further Dublin expansion

Athlone based accountancy firm Russell Brennan Keane has announced further expansion in Dublin.
 
Described as the largest independent firm of chartered accountants in Ireland, Russell Brennan Keane has merged with PGL, a long established accountancy practice in Clonskeagh, Dublin 14.
 
The combined entities will have revenue of in excess of €12.5 million, a team of 17 partners with 170 professionals and support staff across four offices in Athlone, Roscommon, Dublin's Baggot Street and now Clonskeagh.

This consolidates Russell Brennan Keane’s position as a leading accountancy and advisory firm. 

The merged firm will trade as Russell Brennan Keane (RBK).
 
David Gleeson, managing partner, said RBK are extremely proud of the footprint they have developed in Dublin.

'This new chapter is the latest part of a growth strategy as the firm continues to combine talent and resources to address the needs of our increasingly diverse client-base. 

'This merger with PGL enables us to significantly increase our presence in the Dublin market and we are looking forward to providing an enhanced service offering to PGL clients.”
 
Declan Lernihan, Managing Partner at PGL, added, “This merger gives us access to significant, well regarded and widespread professional experience, offering clients audit, tax and accounting services in addition to Corporate Finance; HR support; and IT consultancy services and gives access to a wider geographical spread in Ireland through offices in Athlone and Roscommon and worldwide through the Leading Edge Alliance.”
