The founder of Arthur Bell has become its chairman, while the company has also promoted a member to a senior leadership role.

Arthur Bell, a CPA and advisory firm with wealthy individuals among its client base, has made two senior management changes.

Arthur Bell, the company’s namesake, has assumed the newly-created role of chairman while Corey McLaughlin has been elevated to the leadership position of managing member.

In his new role, Bell will continue to work on client matters and to be involved in business development initiatives. He has spent most of his career in the commodities and hedge fund sectors as a regulatory, tax, audit and business advisor.

McLaughlin, meanwhile, is now responsible for the management of the company, which he joined in 1998. He has a strong background in providing accounting, auditing and consulting services to entities including commodity pools, hedge funds, CTAs, investment advisors, broker-dealers and others.

Arthur Bell CPAs was re-branded as Arthur Bell this year. The Maryland-based firm provides audit and assurance, tax planning and compliance, performance analysis, investor representative, consulting and family office services to the alternative investment industry, entrepreneurs, family offices, and high net worth individuals.
