            EXPLORING OPPORTUNITIES, ACHIEVING SUCCESS

            Why do you turn to your accountant? Because you want help, support, guidance. You may simply need the answer to a technical question. Or you may be considering a decision that will change everything. Our job is to help you explore the possibilities; to inspire you to look further; to help you find outcomes that will work for you, your business, your colleagues and your family.

            Who are BKL?

            We’re a Top 50 firm of chartered accountants and tax advisers with more than 200 people. We’ve been working and growing in London for over 40 years.

            Our clients tend to have an ambitious, entrepreneurial spirit in common and the entrepreneurial mindset requires intelligent support. We work with entrepreneurial, owner-managed businesses and HNWIs. Entrepreneurs seek us out to help them structure and run their businesses to facilitate growth and support their lifestyle. Private clients work with us to help create and preserve wealth between generations.

            Our people

            BKL is made up of individuals who can deal with people as well as numbers, who are interested in the world and who bring something new to the table. Together, we seek to understand what really matters and find out what’s really at stake through building confidence and trust. We take the time to know and understand you and evaluate where help is most needed.

            Tax experts and specialists

            It is a source of great pride to us that many of our peers and other professional firms come to us with their clients’ complex tax matters. We’re recognised as one of the country’s foremost authorities in this area. But our expertise covers many sectors and specialisations, which is why we’re able to assemble formidable teams to help realise our clients’ ambitions. Excellence is an ingrained part of our culture.

            BKL Advance: virtual CFO

            Even if your business isn’t ready for a full-time chief financial officer, you can still access the advantages. BKL Advance, our virtual CFO service, can help you take your business to a new level of excellence.

            Our flexibility means that you can call on the support you need, when you need it, from trusted second opinions and strategic guidance to efficient operational management.

            Complementing our CFO service are the outsourcing services available from our Advanced Business Services team. We offer the latest accounting technology, advanced data analysis and instant access to a dedicated team of business-focused professionals.

            Our close support will enable you to get on with running your business, confident of a promising future.

            Strategists

            For us, though, excellence has to extend beyond specialised knowledge. What counts in business are the broader aims and ambitions of our clients. With open, challenging minds, and a breadth of vision to call on, we’re able to make expertise count in the real world. We look to contribute to future success in every way we can, constantly questioning to see where and what we can offer.

            Above all, we’re human

            Yes, accountants are human. We like our work, but we like the relationships we have with our clients more. We’re honest – expect us to tell things how they are. We offer opinions – we don’t leave that to you or hedge our bets – because clients need advice. Our partners are accessible: you are appointed one as your relationship manager – and you should find us available whenever you need us, be it a call, meeting or lunch.

            B Corp Certified

            We were proud to become a Certified B Corporation in 2022. This puts us in a worldwide community of businesses that meet high standards of verified social and environmental performance, public transparency and legal accountability to balance profit and purpose.

            We’re looking forward to learning from our fellow B Corps and growing as a business under the guidance of high B Corp standards.
