Alexander Knight & Co joins global accounting network

We are delighted to announce that we have joined a leading international network of accounting firms to take advantage of growing demand for UK-based tax expertise.

Our practice, based in Hale, Greater Manchester, is now a member of MGI Worldwide which includes more than 9,000 professionals in almost 100 countries around the world.

 MGI Worldwide was established in 1947 and is the oldest international accountancy network in the world.  Annual revenues of all its members top £770m.

We have made this decision following increased demand during the past few years for our specialist UK tax and audit services for the UK subsidiaries of overseas companies. It also comes in readiness for a post-Brexit business landscape in anticipation of new trade deals where international expertise will be required.

MGI Worldwide member firms are well respected in their local markets, share similar values and work with the same types of clients, from small and medium-sized businesses, family business, entrepreneurial and fast growth enterprises to subsidiaries of major multinationals.

Murray Patt, founder of Alexander Knight & Co, explain what it means for our clients:

Joining MGI Worldwide means we are part of a network of advisers who have expertise in all corners of the globe. As well as being able to access guidance from other member firms in their own jurisdictions, it means that we can secure referrals from international companies who are looking for specialist advice about setting up in the UK or who need specialist advice on the UK tax position. It’s a fantastic expansion of our expertise for our clients.

Paul Winder, MGI regional co-ordinator for the UK & Ireland, said:

We are delighted to welcome Alexander Knight & Co into our international network. We have a high demand for UK expertise, particularly on tax issues and Alexander Knight & Co fits our key criteria of being highly skilled in this area.

“They also understand their clients businesses, aspirations and what it means to be entrepreneurial.
