Brunton Cropp & Co Limited is a chartered accountancy firm based in the Hutt Valley, having looked after businesses across the Wellington region for more than 50 years. As a locally-owned firm, Brunton Cropp says it understands the real challenges of running a business in today's environment, and builds its service around genuine, long-term relationships with clients.
Rather than waiting for clients to come to them, Brunton Cropp aims to provide advice proactively, when a business actually needs it. The firm takes time to understand each client's situation, family and business goals, so the advice given is tailored specifically to them, rather than generic. This approach is intended to deliver a greater return on the time and money clients invest in their business and personal goals.
Brunton Cropp's accounting services cover the essentials of running a business, including financial statements, budgeting, cash flow forecasting, benchmarking, payroll services, and support with business start-ups, office duties and software solutions. On the specialist side, the firm offers services for charitable trusts, rental property owners, company secretarial work, and trusts more broadly.
Two areas the firm highlights specifically are retirement planning and business succession. For retirement planning, Brunton Cropp helps clients work through key questions — when to retire, how much income is needed, how to acquire that income, and what role government support will play — to help clients plan for the retirement they've earned. Succession planning and support for selling a business round out the firm's specialist advisory services for business owners approaching a transition.
On the tax side, Brunton Cropp provides services covering GST, FBT (Fringe Benefit Tax) and general taxation matters. The firm is also set up to support clients on Xero, offering cloud accounting solutions that give business owners more visibility and flexibility over their finances. As members of Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand (CA), the Brunton Cropp team combines traditional auditing and accounting practices with more innovative, client-focused services.
