Baron, who is based in Dexter, Mich., says there are no firm plans to announced for the Brazil and the Spanish-speaking nations of  Latin America. However, he says the new group will be seeking the partners it needs to move into the new countries. The tax and accounting operations have previously been limited to the United States and Canada. Meanwhile, Teresa Mackintosh has been promoted to the position of SVP and general manager of the professional market. That unit’s products include the UltraTax tax preparation software, and other members of the CS professional suite such as FileCabinet CS, Client Bookkeeping Solution and Write-up CS.

Also under Baron are three other units, myPay Solutions, headed by SVP Jack LaRue, while Joe Jackson heads the other two groups, corporate income tax, and OneSource Information Reporting, a 1099 business. Baron says the OneSource operation was split away from another Thomson unit with the plan to expand that business.
