Wed, 28 Jan 2026 | MERGER
A national accountancy and business advisory group has expanded after merging with a prominent counterpart based in the West Midlands. TC Group has announced a merger with BSN Associates, in a deal that forms the new combined business TC BSN.
Post-transaction, TC BSN will continue to operate from the company’s office in Oldbury, with the deal retaining the firm’s local presence, while providing it with access to the national resources and wider support services offered by TC Group.
BSN Associates specialises in providing accountancy and advisory services to owner-managed businesses, corporate and personal clients across a number of sectors. The firm is one of just a handful of all-female-owned UK accountancy practices.
Following the merger, the companies have said that they would focus on expanding advisory services, while ensuring that continuity is maintained for existing clients.
Shiv Shah, Chief Growth Officer at TC Group, commented: “The forward-thinking and proactive approach the business takes with its clients and staff, together with being one of the few all-female owned accountancy firms in the UK, make it an enduring firm punching well above its weight who we’re delighted to welcome to the group.”
“Colleagues and clients can expect the same care and attention they’ve come to enjoy under Pippa’s and Hannah’s continued stewardship, with additional support through the reach and depth of our broader capabilities across TC Group.”
BSN Associates added that the deal would enable the company “to achieve its growth ambitions and ensure the business is future fit for the changing business environment that impacts both BSN and our clients.”
