DKN Financial Group has announced the expansion of Queensland-based financial services firm, Quill Group, following its acquisition of Brisbane accountancy practice, Sims Crawford Elliott (SCE) and Co.

The acquisition came into effect on February 28, 2011 and signals a move by the firm to secure greater business growth and provide added strength of services to its clients. The takeover means Quill Group has now gained a second office in Brisbane and its growth plans include increasing its presence in South East Queensland.

SCE partner, David Elliott, said the decision to join forces would help increase the services offered by the firm.

“The decision to join forces with Quill Group can offer additional services in accounting, financial planning, insurance, finance and superannuation is a move in the right direction,” he said.
