Cherry Bekaert announced it has acquired Tarsus, a Washington, DC-based accounting and advisory firm known for outsourced accounting, bookkeeping, real-time financial reporting and KPI reporting, strategic CFO services, and data insights for management teams.
The deal expands Cherry Bekaert’s Outsourced Accounting and CFO Advisory capabilities while adding scale in the Washington, DC and Kansas City markets. The firm said the combination will strengthen service delivery for clients in technology, government contracting, private equity, and professional services.
Tarsus is headquartered in Washington, DC and operates additional offices in California, Missouri, and Bangalore, India.
