Russell Bedford appoints its first firm in Adelaide

The strong Asian connections of Adelaide strategic accounting firm Lee Green & Co have attracted the interest of global accounting network, Russell Bedford International.

Announcing the appointment of Lee Green as its first South Australian member firm, the Melbourne-based Asia-Pacific regional director of Russell Bedford International, Mr Bruce Saward said the firm was an ideal fit with the network’s other Australian offices.

"We are delighted to welcome Lee Green & Co into Russell Bedford's family of firms,” Mr Saward said. 

“As a growing practice with a strong track record in providing services to inbound investors, the firm represents a great fit alongside its fellow members in Australia."

Established in 1989, Lee Green & Co is a four-partner accounting, audit and advisory practice serving clients throughout Australia and from overseas from its Dulwich offices.

With strong international connections, especially to South East Asia, the firm provides a broad range of accounting and tax compliance, management accounting, business consulting and audit and assurance services.  Its clients range from small sole traders and professionals to international property development companies.

Lee Green & Co also has a specialist focus on servicing clients in regional, remote and indigenous communities.

Commenting on his firm's appointment, Lee Green director Mr Michael Sweeney said the firm was pleased to have been accepted as a member of the Russell Bedford network. 

“We are increasingly involved in cross-border transactions particularly in South East Asia and China, and our new affiliation will give us the formal connections we have been seeking with advisers in other jurisdictions.  We are looking forward to collaborating nationally as well, with members elsewhere in Australia, in supporting our existing clients and pursuing new business opportunities together."
