Manchester-based Begbies Traynor Group plc said it is expanding its business recovery team in Brighton with the acquisition of White Maund Insolvency Practitioners.

Begbies said the transaction will increase the group’s existing 20 strong team in Brighton through the addition of four experienced team members, including Chris Latos and Tom D’Arcy, who will join the practice as partners.

Begbies Traynor Group executive chairman Ric Traynor said: “Chris, Tom and the White Maund team have a great reputation and are well known to our Brighton team and the wider professional community. 

“They have a wealth of experience and knowledge to enable us to enhance the support we can provide to our clients across the region.”
