EisnerAmper, a provider of accounting, tax and consulting services to global financial firms, is opening an office in London, under the leadership of Robert Mirsky who joins the firm as Head of the London office and Head of the Asset Management Group.
“As Brexit unfolds, Europe is facing an unprecedented period of economic and regulatory challenges and opportunities,” says Charles Weinstein, Chief Executive Officer of EisnerAmper LLP. “Adding Robert to our team will greatly enhance our ability to offer clients highly specialised, expert financial advisory services in this growing yet rapidly changing market.”
Mirsky (pictured), has more than 20 years of experience advising investment fund managers, financial services companies, banks and investors in the structuring and operational aspects of alternative investments. He has worked in Big Four firms throughout the world, including in the US, the UK, Italy, Thailand and the Cayman Islands and, most recently, he led a global hedge fund practice. In addition, he has significant experience in cross-border structuring, operations, regulation, taxation and international M&A.
Mirsky is a frequent speaker at asset management industry events and is often called upon by both the US and international press to provide insights on industry issues. He has also written extensively on both hedge fund technical issues and asset management industry trends. Mirsky is the Founder and Chairman Emeritus of the child protection charity Help for Children UK and has testified before the UK Parliament on strategies for encouraging charitable giving across the financial services sector.
“I’m excited to be working with the EisnerAmper Financial Services team as we continue to evolve and develop as one of the leading asset management service providers in the world,” says Mirsky.
“We look forward to Rob joining our practice group and adding his capabilities to our client service offering,” says Peter Cogan, Co-Chair of EisnerAmper’s Financial Services Group. “Our continuing investments in resources and talent in the U.S. and abroad further enhance our position as a world-class alternative investment and financial services accounting and advisory firm.”
