Beaconsfield-based firm Rouse and London-based innovation and tech specialist practice Finerva have completed a merger deal.
The newly combined firm brings together Rouse’s full-service capability with Finerva’s focus on ambitious businesses in the tech, biotech and e-commerce sectors.
Through the merger, the team has expanded to over 110 professionals, enabling clients to access a broader range of services and specialist expertise.
The teams will continue to operate under their respective Rouse and Finerva brand names. Rouse’s Beaconsfield office, will be led by Leighton Bower, while Adam Brodie founder of Finerva, will continue to lead the London office.
Rouse’s presence in audit, tax advisory and personal tax services will be complemented by Finerva’s expertise in fractional CFO and M&A services within the venture capital landscape.
Both firms expand their geographical footprint, with offices in central London and Buckinghamshire, offering greater accessibility for clients.
Bower said: “We are delighted to merge with Finerva, who bring a wealth of new skills and specialisms to our offering. By remaining independent it means that we can continue to offer a personal approach to client relationships and focus on client care. We also see this as a springboard to expand our teams and attract new talent as we continue to pursue further growth.”
Brodie added: “I started Finerva because I believed we could build a best-in-country team to provide the best advice to the most ambitious businesses in the UK and beyond, which our team does day in, day out.
“In my time with Finerva, one other team has stood above all other UK practices for their excellence: Rouse. Thanks to this merger we can continue to attract the best UK accounting, tax and advisory talent into Rouse Finerva, through the hiring of exceptional talent and M&A with exceptional quality practices.”
