Clifton Gunderson, the 11th largest U.S. accounting firm, has announced its merger with the Colorado-based firm of Van Schooneveld & Co.

Van Schooneveld & Co. brings 36 professionals to the merger and plans to continue operations from its present location in Greenwood Village, a suburb of Denver.

Clifton Gunderson chief executive Carl George commented on the merger: "One of our key firm-wide growth strategies is to further enhance our presence in key Clifton Gunderson markets, like the Denver area. Our combination with the Van Schooneveld firm accomplishes just that and the synergies between our two firms are excellent."
