Kreston IOM announced the adoption of the Kreston brand at its launch event held recently at The Courthouse Club.
The celebration was enjoyed by guests, associates, staff and local dignitaries including the Isle of Man’s Chief Minister, Hon Allan Bell and MHK John Shimmin, Minister for the Isle of Man Department of Economic Development. Also in attendance was Jon Lisby, Chief Executive Officer of Kreston International.
Kreston IOM has been the Isle of Man’s sole representative of Kreston International (“Kreston”) since 2005 and has now fully aligned itself with the network brand.
Kreston is now the 13th largest accounting network in the World, with nearly $2 Billion of annual revenues in 2012, and is a dedicated Network of accountants and business advisors, with 700 member firms, employing over 21,000 professionals in over 105 countries.
Stewart Davies, Managing Director of Kreston IOM, commented;
“We are delighted to have adopted the Kreston brand in line with the Kreston International Network, which continues to grow exponentially. In 2012 we won the Accounting Bulletins ‘Rising Star Network’ of the year and we are very proud to be the Isle of Man’s sole member”.
Jon Lisby, CEO of Kreston International added, "Kreston IOM has had a very active membership within the network for some time. Their decision to adopt the Network brand has only strengthened their strong reputation in the market. In 2011 and 2012 Kreston IOM chaired the Kreston UK’s Tax Group and they currently chair the Network’s International Wealth and Fiduciary Services Special Interest Group. This covers 13 jurisdictions across the globe, with businesses that undertake similar corporate services.
In the rapidly changing economic environment, the ability to operate on a global level and gain advice in all jurisdictions is essential. Kreston IOM is operating within an international platform and the fact that the brand is recognisable worldwide is a natural evolution from the Groups strong name”.
