Deloitte gears for infrastructure expansion
In a move to better position itself to take advantage of the continuing infrastructure boom, Deloitte has today announced a three-way expansion of its Corporate Finance Group via a merger with Insight Economics and the signing of a Queensland-based team of senior infrastructure project delivery specialists.
Announcing the moves, Deloitte chief executive Giam Swiegers said the mergers and acquisitions announced today would bolster the company’s ability to take large scale infrastructure projects all the way from strategic assessment through to procurement, construction and delivery.
He said the Insight Economics team would boost Deloitte’s public policy and corporate strategy consulting capability.
Deloitte Corporate Finance head Ian Thatcher said the latest acquisitions ensured the company was well-positioned to assist governments, banks and asset owners as a high level adviser in an increasingly resource-constrained environment.
