Engineering & Electronics

Light engineering and electronics represent the North East’s industrial backbone . This industrial development has been facilitated by the presence of some historic companies as well as multinationals that have made an important contribution towards the emergence of a new generation of entrepreneurs and engineers. Over the years, numerous leading sector companies were established and have developed specific fields of expertise, such as machine tools or the components industry or created ex novo the new home electronics sector. Their growth has been generally characterized by setting up off-shore companies: the so-called “pocket-sized multinationals”, which are very widespread among the companies of the foregoing sectors.      

In assisting companies operating in the light-engineering and electronics sectors our professional staff have gained significant experience by assisting them in: 

• Assisting corporate reorganization;
• Assistance in drawing up individual and consolidated financial statements according to national and international accounting standards GAAP or IAS/IFRS; 
• Drawing up expert appraisals;
• Due diligence in the framework of extraordinary financing operations; growth through external lines or through a sales process;
• Valuation of intangible assets (patents and trademarks). 

 There are significant and numerous statutory auditor appointments in companies in the sectors of light-engineering and electronics.
