Commitment to growth
Barton believes the decision to restructure represents a renewed growth focus: “Our strategy has always been focused on blended growth – a mix of organic and M&A, depending on market conditions and opportunity driven by legislation. For example, 2024 was a big M&A year given the changes to capital gains tax that prompted many proprietors to consider their options. We see the opportunity in 2025 to be biased towards organic growth and we are investing in our team with this restructure,” he said.
