Mid-Tier Firms Ready to Step Up: Sandie Boswell’s Perspective

As discussion continues around the future of the accounting and advisory profession, Bentleys Australia and New Zealand CEO Sandie Boswell has highlighted the important role mid-tier firms can play in supporting Australian businesses. In a recent Capital Brief article, Sandie noted that “there were other options” available to organisations and that firms such as Bentleys are well positioned to support clients across advisory, tax and compliance services.

Looking ahead, Sandie also shared her views on the profession’s evolving regulatory landscape, emphasising the importance of maintaining audit independence while ensuring reforms remain practical for clients. As she noted, “Independence is so important for our capital markets”, but any changes must also consider the realities facing SMEs and the costs of accessing professional services.
