What believers are saying

  • Summit Partners funding accelerated 2025 acquisitions and geographic expansion.

What critics are saying

  • Acquisition integration strain is rising across New York, Ohio, Michigan, and Missouri.
  • Partner retention weakens if acquired teams lose autonomy or compensation consistency.
  • Deal-dependent advisory revenue drops quickly when M&A and capital-raising activity slows.

What makes UHY unique

  • UHY combines national tax, consulting, and advisory services with local-market relationships.
  • Its alternative practice structure separates UHY Advisors from UHY LLP for audit independence.
  • UHY International gives U.S. clients access to nearly 100-country coverage.
