President’s Message
Message from the President
Kevin Rees, CPA – Delaware, 27th of September 2013
When Edward Moore established his firm in 1866, and C. H. Nevill founded his in 1875—which later became Rowland Nevill—neither could have imagined that their legacies would endure and evolve into what Moores Rowland represents today. The merger between Edward Moore & Sons and Rowland Nevill marked a pivotal milestone, giving rise to a professional network that has stood the test of time.
As President of this association for over six years, I take immense pride in our legacy. The firm’s simplified family tree, available on both the ICAEW and our official websites, stands as a testament to our long-standing history and the roadmap that has shaped our network’s journey.
Over the past eight years, we faced significant challenges, particularly when some of our member firms merged with another network. Despite these setbacks, the unwavering commitment of our current members to preserve and strengthen our network enabled us not only to endure but also to re-emerge as one of the top global accounting networks, as recognized by leading industry publications.
In an increasingly interconnected world, our presence is more essential than ever. Technological advancements have empowered us to work seamlessly across borders, enabling our firms to offer services both locally and internationally with unprecedented ease and efficiency.
Our mission is to serve our clients by examining their past, analyzing their present, and preparing them for the future. We take pride in being a comprehensive professional services network, managing our clients’ financial and business matters, and guiding their managerial and generational transitions.
Looking ahead, we are deeply optimistic. Our vision is to become the most reliable and trusted global network for professional services. We are fully committed—alongside our internationally connected team of professionals—to delivering the highest standards of service, equipping clients to mitigate risk and avoid failure. Every member of our network is a trusted, proficient service provider.
Our tagline, Generating Value, is more than just a slogan—it defines our purpose. With humility and clarity, I can affirm that Moores Rowland has broadened my knowledge and empowered both myself and my colleagues to become distinguished advisors to our clients and the broader global network.
We remain confident in the passion and dedication of our members, all of whom are committed to delivering exceptional service. We believe that when our clients succeed, we succeed.
To the global business community, we extend a simple but sincere invitation: Approach us whenever you seek professional guidance—let us be your trusted advisors.
