Buffalo Business First

Growth-minded CPA firms are taking advantage of baby boomer retirements in their ranks to merge, acquire, specialize and hire their way into a greater share of the market. The strategy coincides with changes in the industry that favor value-added services such as niche consulting. The result is firms that hardly resemble those of the not-so-old days that relied on the traditional staple of tax and audit work.
