We’re excited to announce that RBS Chartered Accountants has joined BKL

This is a great moment for both firms and reflects a shared belief in how accountancy and advisory services should be delivered, with a strong focus on relationships, practical advice, and a clear understanding of the businesses and people we work with.

RBS has built its reputation over many years by supporting clients in a highly personal and commercially focused way, acting as a trusted sounding board to business owners. That approach closely mirrors how we work at BKL, making this a natural fit.

Together, we bring a shared commitment to long-term client relationships, combined with the ability to support clients as their needs evolve in an increasingly complex and fast-changing environment, including the growing role of technology and AI in the profession.

For clients, the focus remains the same: the people you work with, and the way you are supported, will continue as before. What this partnership adds is greater depth behind the scenes and a broader platform for the future.

We’re excited about what we can achieve together and look forward to the next chapter as one team.

Lee Brook, CEO of BKL, said:

“Bringing the RBS team on board builds on our growing position in the London market and strengthens our capability to deliver high quality, relationship-led advice to entrepreneurs, SMEs and OMBs.

“This marks another step in our strategy to build a broad-based business advisory firm, combining deep technical expertise with the personal approach our clients value.”

Ketan Shah, Partner at RBS, said:

“Joining BKL is a natural next step for us, giving our clients access to broader expertise while preserving the personal, relationship-led approach that defines our firm.

“As part of BKL, we will continue supporting our clients in the same way as before, while strengthening the resources around us as their needs evolve.”
