We are pleased to share that we have acquired Cox Costello & Horne, a respected accountancy and advisory firm based in Rickmansworth.
This move brings our combined strengths across audit, tax, accounting and business advisory together, expanding our capacity while keeping the personal service that clients of both firms value.
Cox Costello & Horne will continue to operate under its own name as part of Macalvins Group.
All employees of Cox Costello & Horne will remain with the firm, providing continuity for clients and stability for the team.
For clients, it is business as usual. Everyone will keep their existing contacts and the Cox Costello & Horne Partners will continue in their current roles as part of our wider Group.
Over the coming months, we will begin integrating systems and knowledge so clients can benefit from the latest technology, a wider pool of specialists and deeper sector expertise.
Our CEO, Tariq Husain, said: “Cox Costello & Horne is a firm we have long admired for its technical quality and client care. By bringing our teams together we can offer broader expertise, faster access to specialists and greater resilience for the businesses and private clients we support.”
Mike Cox, Managing Partner of Cox Costello & Horne, added: “Joining Macalvins Group is a natural next step in our evolution. Our clients will see the same trusted advisers and receive the same pragmatic, high-quality service, now backed by the additional resources and reach of a larger group. For our people, this creates fresh opportunities to develop and to collaborate across a wider range of disciplines.”
This acquisition follows our recent addition of Spencer Hyde and reflects our strategy of building a leading, people-centred advisory business through a blend of organic growth and carefully chosen acquisitions.
We will continue to invest in talent, technology and service innovation over the next year to enhance client experience and support long-term growth.
