Alliott Global Alliance appoints Daryl Petrick as North America Regional Chair

Daryl succeeds Jeff Berger, Co-Managing Partner at Golenbock Eiseman Assor Bell & Peskoe in New York City. Effective 1 November 2021, this new role will see Daryl join the Worldwide Board of Directors.

Daryl will be supported by newly elected Deputy of the North America region, Chris Blake, Partner at Hahn Loeser & Parks (Cleveland, Ohio), and will serve a three-year term. As well as representing the interests of the North America membership of CPAs and attorneys on the Worldwide Board, Daryl will play an important role in formulating an alliance-wide strategy that will drive up the alliance’s value proposition and in supporting the Executive Office to implement plans.

A partner at Bowman and Company, a firm that has been a member of AGA since 2009, Daryl specialises in planning and taxation matters for family-owned businesses, high-income individuals, and real estate professionals, and represents clients involved with international transactions.

Daryl comments:

“It is an honour to be appointed to this position within the alliance and to step into such an important role recently held by Jeff. As Chair, Jeff has demonstrated great leadership and I will do my best to lead by his example and to work to develop and implement strategies that will continue to help raise the profile of AGA further across North America.

“I also look forward to working closely with our law and accounting member firms across the region and to discussing ways in which we can all work even more effectively and collaboratively together into 2022 and beyond.”

Alliott Global Alliance CEO, Giles Brake adds:

“Daryl’s elevation to Chair of the North America region reflects the high regard in which he is held by members in the region and by the current directors of the Worldwide Board. He is a proactive innovator who brings an infectious enthusiasm, and his ability to challenge conventional wisdom will ensure we maintain our forward momentum in an extremely competitive alliance market. I look forward to working alongside Daryl in the years ahead as we seek to take AGA to the next level.”
