The firm grew steadily in the 1970's and 1980's and in 1983 became part of Fox Moore International which changed to Moores Rowland International in 1987. This association consists of a large number of independent firms throughout the world. It is one of the ten largest associations of accountants worldwide. We recently added 'MRI' to our name as part of a concerted effort by the group to improve our international identity.

The ethos of the firm remains unchanged over the years in that we strive to give good professional advice to our clients in a personal and friendly manner. Partners and staff work hard to develop a long term business relationship with each client.

If you are from Northern Ireland and are looking for a new accountant then we may be what you require. The details of the services we provide are shown elsewhere on this site and as a long-established firm committed to its clients we feel that we can meet your needs, from a large audit to tax return preparation and advice, at a standard and price to satisfy you. If you are looking for specialist services that we do not directly provide then we will know where these services are available and will be glad to help you in your choice of provider.

If you are an overseas visitor then you are especially welcome. Despite the image presented to the outside world, Northern Ireland is an extremely attractive place to live and work, and set up a business. Very many visitors, if not most, who come here to set up in business, or as employees of international firms, never leave because of the quality of life, and the work ethic here. We have an excellent education system here which results in a well-educated workforce who are able and prepared to work.

Northern Ireland is part of the UK tax structure except that a special relief is given for capital expenditure on plant and machinery, the full cost of which is allowed against tax in the year of purchase.

We have our own Companies Act setting out the rules for trading as a limited liability company, which largely follows the legislation in England.

We are very pleased to be an independent firm but part of Moores Rowland International, an association of independent firms throughout the world. Please visit the Moores Rowland International (MRI) website to see the extent and quality of the firms involved as members.

MRI helps us deal with international expansion by our own clients and allows us to help clients of our international MRI colleagues as they expand into Ireland.

In addition there is a huge range of experience and expertise readily available to us through MRI which allows us to compete favourably with the largest international accounting practices.
