Assetree launches latest group for acquiring and scaling accountancy practises.

Assetree has launched it latest investment group - Canopy Accounting Group - with a vision to acquire and consolidate UK accounting firms and transform the professional services landscape.

The accounting sector is very fragmented with owner operated businesses dominating the market outside of the top 20 firms. Owner operated firms are more nimble, less political and often offer a more personalised customer experience. However, the marketing reach, pricing power, and resources of larger firms creates a ceiling that smaller accounting companies struggle to break through.

Combine this with a significant number of small business owners reaching retirement age and a declining pool of talent amongst graduates and mid-career professionals since covid, securing a long term future for accounting businesses presents it's challenges.

Assetree believe that consolidating the SME accounting market is the solution.
