Accountancy firm Kreston Reeves is to merge with a London practice creating a company with a turnover of more than £33 million.

The Canterbury-based business will join forces with Munslows from June 1, a year to the day after it completed a takeover of South East rival Spofforths.

The move was motivated by Munslows’ experience with AIM and listed companies.

Its partners and staff will move into the London office of Kreston Reeves in Moorgate and trade as Kreston Reeves, adding more than 80 staff.

The combined businesses will have 52 partners and more than 450 staff across 10 offices, including Chatham and Sandwich.
