Top 25 CPA Firms

The list of the largest accounting firms in Minnesota is fairly static from year to year, with a few exceptions. This year, one big mover is Eide Bailly, which reported doubling its number of accountants in the state, from 50 last year to 101 this year. Wipfli also grew, with 20 more CPAs than in 2007. The demand for auditing and advisory services remains high as corporations look to manage risks in all parts of the organization. Informed decision making becomes ever-more critical in an uncertain economy, and local accountants stand by with advice at-the-ready.
