In FY23 income from Private Equity houses and PE-backed businesses reached £181m (25% higher than prior year). The firm's plans see this growth accelerating, with investment supporting growth in all Streams.

It is a key focus for a wide range of stakeholders, including investors (both Public and Private), government, regulators & the media; not only in the UK but also internationally. It is of particular significance as BDO member firms drive international relationships through global MSAs and we fulfil our obligations to understand complex family trees, our clients' and audited entities' ownership structures.
