Accounting M&A is the show that unpacks the wave of consolidation transforming the accounting profession. Hosted by Rob Brown, it brings together the leaders, investors and advisors behind the deals that are reshaping firm ownership, culture and strategy across North America and beyond.
Private equity is one of the most powerful forces in accounting today. Firms are being bought, merged and restructured at record pace as investors see the profession as a gateway to long-term, recurring revenue and trusted client relationships. Accounting M&A explains what this means for firm owners, partners and next-generation leaders who need to understand valuation, succession and scale.
Each monthly panel features four high-profile guests drawn from accounting firms, private equity houses, networks, law firms and M&A advisors. Together they share the insights, data and experience behind the numbers. Listeners learn how deals are financed, structured and integrated, what drives valuation multiples and where risk and opportunity lie.
The show also explores the human impact of consolidation. What happens to culture when outside capital enters? How do leaders retain talent, purpose and independence in PE-backed environments? What does succession look like for founders who want an exit but also a legacy? Accounting M&A addresses these real questions with candour and balance.
For firm leaders planning growth or sale, for consultants advising on transactions and for investors seeking to understand the profession, Accounting M&A offers context, clarity and credibility. It blends market intelligence with strategic insight, giving listeners a front-row seat to the most disruptive trend in accounting.
Accounting M&A is part of the Accounting Voices Network, which also includes the solo show Accounting Voices and the panel series Accounting AI. Together they give the profession relevance, visibility and a stronger voice.
