Our History Wakefield Business Group

Wakefield Business Group (WBG) has been in practice since 1973. The founder of the firm, Prem Singh, started the business from scratch after specialising in Audit and Taxation with Big 4 firm KPMG. With experts in the field such as Robert Boucaut and Arthur Walters who are regarded as pioneers in the industry, the firm has grown into the business it is today.

With former locations in Light Square, Wakefield Street and Gilles Street, the firm has now settled in the suburbs in Norwood. With a small dedicated team, WBG prides itself on being able to cater for your needs regardless of whether you are an individual or a big business.
