EICO's acquired operations will be merged with RSM McGladrey's existing New York City practice, creating a combined staff of more than 300 people and making it one of the area's largest firms serving mid-size companies, said RSM McGladrey.

For RSM MGladrey, a subsidiary of H&R Block, the move enhances the firm's ability to serve clients in the New York tri-state area, the company said. EICO sees the acquisition as an opportunity to expand its services and to provide more career opportunities to its staff.

To ensure independence for attest services, including audits and reviews, EICO's attest operations will merge with McGladrey & Pullen, a national CPA firm with 75 offices across the country, including several in the New York area.
