BDO Dunwoody merges with Goodman Rosen

June 8th, 2007 · 2 Comments

Hot on the heels of their announcement that the merger discus­sions with Grant Thornton were called off, BDO Dunwoody’s insol­vency practice BDO Dunwoody Ltd. has joined forces in Nova Scotia with Goodman Rosen Inc.

Expanding one of Canada’s most compre­hensive financial recovery practices, BDO Dunwoody Limited, Trustee in Bankruptcy and Goodman Rosen Inc., Trustee in Bankruptcy have agreed to merge their profes­sional practices effective July 1, 2007. In Halifax and Sydney, the merged firm will operate as BDO Dunwoody Goodman Rosen Inc.

HandshakeGoodman Rosen Inc. is a boutique firm special­izing in financial recovery services in Halifax and Sydney. The merger heralds a bold move by BDO to grow their full-service practice organ­i­cally throughout Atlantic Canada.

In an ironic twist, Goodman Rosen currently offer (according to their website) appoint­ments in Yarmouth, Nova Scotia at Grant Thornton’s offices.

What do you think? Is this a better growth option for BDO in Canada versus the attention-grabbing Grant Thornton merger talks announced earlier?

    Does this mean that the Goodman Rosen office in Sydney will trade as BDO Dunwoody Goodman Rosen, separate to its Australian/Sydney affiliate BDO Kendalls?
