Our clients say
“Steve Lant was an inspired choice. Because of the unique complexities of the ownership of eaga, the trustees and the directors had to grapple with a wide range of significant interlinked issues. Steve became an integral part of the team and provided excellent guidance often making extremely complicated issues simple to understand”.
“I was very impressed by the unw team throughout. At eaga we are proud of our culture and own commitment to service excellence; I think the unw team demonstrated their commitment to service excellence throughout the IPO process, frequently exceeding our already high expectations. They also demonstrated a good sense of humour”.
John Clough, Chief Executive, eaga plc
“When a decision was taken to proceed towards an IPO we assessed the work that was required to hit the target date and we realised that there were some important areas where we needed external assistance”.
“I knew unw from previous work and contacted them to see whether they could assist and was very impressed by the speed of response. They discussed our requirements and within a few days we had specialist staff working on two key projects”.
“Mark Simpson built a complex financial model and Gary Henderson assisted in preparing the data room. These were both front end projects and the outputs stood up to the rigours of the rest of intensive IPO process”.
Giles Sharp, Director Financial Planning, eaga plc
“I was very excited when I came across the filtration technology developed by Bath University as I could see massive commercial potential. However there were a number of complexities in putting the deal together and unw guided us expertly throughout the process”.
Colin Billiet, n-psl Limited
"As a locally based company with a £75m turnover, we were keen to ensure that we moved to a firm with the necessary expertise and experience to handle our audit, tax compliance and tax advisory work. Having been with our previous advisors for over 20 years, we had to be convinced that UNW had the capability to deliver the services we required. We have now been advised by UNW for 2 years and our Finance Director and myself are entirely satisfied that we took the right decision and remain happy with the audit and tax services provided..........we believe UNW gives us a more hands on approach and is more proactive to our needs."
Richard Errington, Managing Director, Crossling Limited
