Ryan, a leading global tax services and software provider, has announced the acquisition of RTC Consulting (RTC), a leading scientific research and experimental development (SR&ED) tax consultancy in Canada.

“The strength and success of RTC is the perfect addition to our thriving SR&ED practice,” said Ryan Chairman and CEO G. Brint Ryan. “Their track record over the last three decades of obtaining tax credits for companies of all sizes in a variety of industries will be an immediate asset to our clients with Canadian operations. We are thrilled to offer our clients expanded technical expertise and services as we continue our accelerated growth across Canada.”

Founded in 1989, RTC specializes in the preparation of claims for various tax credit programs across more than 30 different fields in science and technology and has helped clients receive millions of dollars in tax credit refunds and benefits. As part of the acquisition, founder and majority shareholder Peter Kustec will join Ryan as a Principal in the Firm’s existing SR&ED practice.

“I felt Ryan was a strong fit because of its reputation in the industry as an innovator of technology and exemplary record of client service,” said Kustec. “The combination of RTC and Ryan’s existing SR&ED practice opens the door for many value-added opportunities for our clients. I look forward to continuing our tradition of offering our clients the highest quality services and unmatched results.”
