Currently customers need consulting companies that have a strong network, preferably with international coverage. Effective consultation increasingly requires interdisciplinary competences from a single source, therefore, it is a great idea to combine companies with related services, but specialising in a specific field.
Following customer requirements, German member Russell Bedford International – LFK Limberger Fuchs Koch & Partner – announced a merger with Leisle GmbH, a tax and audit consultancy company based in Tuttlingen.
Founded by Pamela Leisle, tax advisor, auditor and expert on international tax law, Leisle GmbH has been highly successful in advising mainly medium-sized enterprises in Tuttlingen and its surroundings for many years.
Speaking about the merger with the RBI member company, Pamela Leisle draws attention to the new opportunities that such a move gives: – My main focus in the work of tax advisor and auditor is always to provide my clients with the best possible advice.
The combination of forces with LFK Limberger Fuchs Koch & Partner will allow us to complement our knowledge and know-how and expand our services.
The LFK has given me the opportunity to integrate my company with their brand, continue working with my clients who are naturally close to my heart, and help shape the future as a partner and managing director.
An alliance with a larger company gives me the opportunity to help my customers with even more knowledge and specialized resources. I will continue to be available to them as a trusted contact person, but if necessary, I can now use the help of specialists and LFK resources.
The office location in Tuttlingen will be maintained and expanded in the coming years. I am convinced that thanks to this alliance I have found future-oriented solutions for my clients.
For Thomas Busshardt, managing partner of LFK, the merger is the logical evolution of LFK Limberger Fuchs Koch & Partner. – Effective consultation increasingly requires interdisciplinary competences from a single source – he says. – Customer requirements for their consultants are increasing, especially for medium-sized companies.
Currently, companies need consulting companies that have a strong network that should also have international coverage. In many areas, more expertise and relevant experience are needed, such as company succession, purchase or sale of companies, and sales/VAT tax advisory services.
