Blick Rothenberg Acquires The VAT Consultancy
HMT, the UK member firm of Cognos, advised on the disposal of The VAT Consultancy, a specialist VAT and Customs Duty consultancy to Blick Rothenberg.
The VAT Consultancy are the UK’s leading independent VAT consultants, providing specialist advice on UK and international tax matters.
The VAT Consultancy’s high-quality advisory and compliance proposition is closely aligned with Blick Rothenberg’s own approach to delivering premium, technically robust tax services. The acquisition enhances the firm’s ability to support both existing and new clients with increasingly complex VAT and customs duty requirements, at a time of continued demand for specialist expertise.
Both firms share a strong cultural alignment and a common commitment to technical excellence, client service and collaboration, making The VAT Consultancy a natural fit for Blick Rothenberg.
The HMT team acted as sell-side lead advisor on the transaction which included identifying the right acquirer, negotiating detailed terms, supporting the business through an extensive due diligence process and project managing the deal to a successful completion.
