No, the amount of new partners and principals elected by Crowe LLP wasn’t 26—the number worn by former Nashville Predators rugged left winger Phil Crowe. But the firm will be giving 24 professionals a seat at the big kids’ table come April 1, 2019.
The 2019 new partner and principal class at the top 10 accounting firm, which dropped the “Horvath” from its name last May, is bigger than the 10 in this year’s class, but smaller than the 25 admitted in 2017.
I count 10 women on next year’s list (42%), compared to three women in 2018’s class of 10 (30%).
Eight of the new partners and principals work in audit services, two in advisory services, three in performance consulting, two in risk consulting, eight in tax services, and one in firm risk management.
Here’s the full list of newly minted Crowe partners and principals:
- Heather Bossenga, Audit Services, Oak Brook, Ill.
