“Throughout this process, a key priority has been to ensure the stability and future success of the Restructuring business and its talented people. This deal will help the team at Interpath to do just that, whilst giving them the opportunity to serve a broader client base and realise their full growth potential. We wish them every success in the future.”

The sale is specific to KPMG in the UK and does not affect the firm’s Insolvency and Restructuring business in Ireland, which includes Northern Ireland.
