Early history

EY is the result of a series of mergers of ancestor organizations. The


oldest originating partnership was founded in 1849 in England as
Harding & Pullein.In that year the firm was joined by Frederick Whinney.
He was made a partner in 1859 and with his sons in the business, it was
renamed Whinney Smith & Whinney in 1894.
In 1903, the firm of Ernst & Ernst was established in Cleveland by Alwin
C. Ernst and his brother Theodore and in 1906, Arthur Young & Co. was
set up by the Scotsman Arthur Young in Chicago.

As early as 1924, these American firms allied with prominent British


firms, Young with Broads Paterson & Co. and Ernst with Whinney Smith
& Whinney.In 1979, this led to the formation of Anglo-American Ernst &
Whinney, creating the fourth largest accountancy firm in the world.[Also
in 1979, the European offices of Arthur Young merged with several large
local European firms, which became member firms of Arthur Young
International.
