Marlin Consulting (a subsidiary of Marlin Group) entered the top of major audit & consulting companies NWFD, according to version of the annual «Expert NW» analytic center rating. The primary specialization of Marlin Consulting is a provider of financial outsourcing and accounting services. However, before creation of separate accounting firms ranking, the publication has been invited to participate in the rating of audit & consulting companies.

In February of 2009 Magazine «Expert North» published regular annual ranking of leading accounting and consulting firm of Russia’s North – West Federal District. The project involved companies registered in the territory of North – West Russia, as well as acting in NWFD branches of organizations registered in other federal districts. The Marlin Consulting company has taken 47th place in records of 2008 fiscal year. The presence of the largest companies in the rating indicates the maturity of the company and its stable position in the market.

«This event is noteworthy for us not only because the presence in the ranking, but also because we were the only accounting niche market companies there in fact. It is a great uprush for us to find ourselves in the project among the leading companies especially taking into account comparatively inconsiderable age of the Marlin Consulting – 3.5 years», – said Sergey Bulavsky, Marlin Group CEO

In addition to the recognition by professionals of the market, presence in the ranking offers the Marlin Consulting an additional advantage in the working with current and further clients, because the rightness of their choice is confirmed by the decision of the authoritative edition.

The Company intends to continue participation in professional ratings, and in particular in the near future will take an active part in working on the development of specialized accounting and outsourcing providers rating.

«On the one hand presence among the largest audit & consulting companies is important event for Marlin Consulting that gives us some advantages, but on the other – participation in the current ranking is not wholly correct for us, considering that the Marlin Consulting is a niche market company unlike the majority of enterprises noted by the edition. Besides of all our professional specialization is not fully consistent with the rating subject», – Sergey Bulavsky stresses.
