KPMG Consulting Becomes BearingPoint
from the we're-not-accountants!! dept
In the continuing saga of consulting firms that really really want to prove they have nothing to do with the accounting firms that launched them, KPMG Consulting has changed their name to BearingPoint, and will spend lots of their hard earned cash making sure that everyone knows. While not quite as exciting as PWC's short-lived (until IBM bought 'em) name change to "Monday:", this name changing business is turning into an expensive fallout from all the recent accounting scandals.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
