In today’s climate, businesses are contending with a wide range of external pressures— from tariffs, auto-enrolment, and evolving climate policies to labour market constraints, supply chain disruptions, cyber security risks, and the rapid growth of AI. These challenges, while significant, also present opportunities for businesses to rethink strategies, drive innovation, and build resilience.

At ifac, we believe that advisory relationships must evolve beyond day-to-day compliance and deadlines. Now more than ever, conversations between businesses and their advisors should focus on strategic thinking, foresight, collaboration, and value creation. Our dedicated SME unit is designed to offer a holistic, one-stop solution for businesses seeking to not only manage risk but to seize growth opportunities.

Whether it's through tax-efficient restructuring, people development planning, or diversification strategies, we provide the skills, expertise, and resources to support businesses in taking a step back, conducting a comprehensive health check, and charting a path forward.

Our integrated teams — spanning tax advisory, wealth management, business advisory, audit, sustainability, and HR services — work together to deliver tailored solutions for both regional and city-based businesses across Ireland. We are passionate about building deeper, more strategic partnerships with our clients, helping them turn today’s challenges into tomorrow’s success stories.

With leaders like James Farrell driving this focus, ifac remains committed to supporting SMEs in achieving sustainable growth and long-term resilience.
