This strategic alliance brings together two highly-regarded firms, combining and expanding their range of specialised services, expertise, and resources for the benefit of their valued clients.

Under the leadership of Sam Ruddenklau and Kylie Fisken, RBS has been serving the Gore and Southland region since April 2016. The firm’s core values of being genuine, driven, innovative, family-focused, and passionate are qualities that align closely with Malloch McClean’s own ethos.

“By joining forces, we can elevate our capabilities to deliver smarter, better business advice that drives success for our clients.”

Sam Ruddenklau, Director of RBS, added, “This merger is an exciting development that expands our service offerings and enhances our ability to meet the diverse needs of our clients. We are excited about the new possibilities and the heightened value we can deliver as a united team.”

The RBS team will continue operating from their current premises under the Malloch McClean name. Clients of both firms will benefit from a seamless transition, working with the same dedicated professionals they know and trust.

Malloch McClean has been operating in Southland since 1933 with a mission to help business owners make more money, pay less tax, and build better lives through smarter, better business.
