Top Firms: Mountain
Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Utah and Wyoming
The Mountain Region was the only one to report a decline in revenue last year; it reported another mild decline this year, but was joined by three other regions. Although unemployment in the states that comprise the
area was low, it did start creeping up this year, which
helps explain the performance.
It also probably wasn’t helped by the absence of
RGL Forensics from this year’s list. Though we’ve included the Denver-based forensic accounting firm in
the Regional Leaders before, its geographic reach — it
has offices across the country, and six outside it — put it
outside the scope of the list. Its growth of over 10 percent in 2010 would certainly have boosted the overall
figure for the region, in which all but two firms reported
relatively modest declines.

Top Firms: New England
Connecticut, Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire,
Rhode Island and Vermont
The biggest change among the Regional Leaders in New
England was the removal from the list of by far its largest
firm, Boston-based Caturano & Co., through its mid-year
merger with national firm RSM McGladrey. That pushed
Connecticut-based Blum Shapiro up to
the top spot — and brought another large competitor to
the region.
