In 1972 Peat Marwick Mitchell & Co. became associated with Black, Geoghegan & Till, one of Guernsey’s leading firms of chartered accountants and the oldest firm in the island.

Black, Geoghegan & Till’s presence in Guernsey dates back to the 19th Century but it was not until the mid-1920’s that the late Harry Broughton was appointed as the first permanent, resident, local representative. When Guernsey was occupied by the German forces in the Second World War Harry Broughton was the only practising accountant in the island.

Following the Liberation of Guernsey in 1945, the firm was in a prime position and still continues to be so, by being amongst the leading firms in the island.

The Jersey office was opened in 1973 and, in 1981, the Channel Islands firm became a full member of Peat Marwick International. In 1987, following the international merger of KPMG, the firm continued as KPMG, the Channel Islands member firm.

With 13 partners and over 200 staff the firm provides audit, accounting, tax and regulatory services to an extensive range of local and international clients. The global dimension of KPMG enables clients of the Channel Islands practice draw on the international resources and skills necessary to meet their needs.
