“With the rapid changes we see among our clients and across markets, we can attest to the need for transformation in its many forms,” said Ernie Perez, managing director and A&M Tax global practice leader. “Minah’s appointment demonstrates how our obsession with best serving our clients remains at the forefront of our strategic growth journey, whether via new offerings, augmenting existing lines of service, or adding new jurisdictions."

Based in Los Angeles, Uttley will serve as US leader for the portfolio tax services (PTS) group. He has extensive experience in tax planning and reporting services, cross-border planning, restructuring, exit planning, accounting method and incentives, and post-acquisition support.

Uttley has supported private equity (PE) clients across a range of industries, including life sciences, pharmaceuticals, technology, utilities, oil and gas, gaming, hospitality, and consumer products.

Uttley was previously a managing director at Andersen Tax, where he led the commercial services practice in Southern California. Before that, he worked at KPMG, where he was a founding member of the accounting methods and credit services practice and was a member of the senior lead tax partner group.

Uttley has a bachelor’s degree in business economics from the University of California, Santa Barbara.  

“Private equity is a key market for us driving considerable growth for both A&M and our Tax practice,” Perez said. “We are constantly seeking ways to diversify and enhance our tax solutions to create additional value for stakeholders across the PE ecosystem while considering the evolving needs of those stakeholders. Our PTS investment, broadly speaking – and Adam’s appointment specifically – does just that.”
