At the juncture of strategic convergence and forward-thinking foresight, three distinguished luminaries in the domains of accounting, audit, and advisory services discovered themselves standing at the nexus of a transformative opportunity. In this fortuitous alignment, Adroit Accountants, IAAL Professional Services, and Ranti Moronkeji & Co. (Chartered Accountants) emerged as stalwarts, each boasting unique strengths and unparalleled expertise in their respective niches.

Adroit Accountants, a versatile firm encompassing Accounting, Taxation, and Management Consultancy, commenced its corporate journey on July 09, 2018, as Highoak Associates, a firm initially set its sights on catering to companies spanning diverse sectors within the United Kingdom.

As the tapestry of late 2023 unfolded, the seed of a merger germinated in the minds of Adroit Accountants’ leadership alongside their counterparts at two other eminent firms: IAAL Professional Services and Ranti Moronkeji & Co. (Chartered Accountants). Cognizant of the dynamic nature of the industry and the escalating demand for comprehensive financial solutions, the visionary leaders saw the potential to forge a powerhouse. This powerhouse would, in turn, deliver unparalleled services across a spectrum ranging from accounting, audit, and tax to business & technology consulting and transaction services.

IAAL Professional Services, an entity specializing in Technology, Strategy, and Transactions, sprang to life in 2021. Its genesis is traced back to its Managing Partner’s departure from a senior position in one of the Big-4 firms, a move motivated by the aspiration to establish an advisory firm rooted in expertise and innovation.

Similarly, Ranti Moronkeji & Co. (Chartered Accountants), formed by an ex-Big-4 professional who departed at a senior level, is registered with the Institute of Chartered Accountants of Nigeria (ICAN) and the Chartered Institute of Taxation of Nigeria (CITN). This firm carved its niche in the realms of Audit & Assurance and Business Advisory services.

In the annals of professional services, these three distinguished firms, each adorned with their unique strengths and expertise, converged in early 2024. Merging seamlessly, they birthed a singular entity under the esteemed banner of Adroit Accountants.

Today, Adroit Accountants stands not only as a merger of entities but as a beacon of financial excellence, strategically positioned to serve clients across Africa, Europe, the United States of America, and other corners of the globe. This geographical reach is complemented by the utilization of associate firms with sterling reputations, enabling Adroit Accountants to transcend physical boundaries and redefine the paradigm of global professional services. As the sun sets on one chapter, the dawn of a new era for Adroit Accountants heralds boundless possibilities and a legacy of unwavering commitment to excellence.
