Middle Market: Discover what moves SME's

There's no doubt about it: mid-si­zed com­pa­nies are the back­bone of the Ger­man eco­nomy. Thanks to these com­pa­nies' flair for pro­duc­tivity, hard work, in­no­va­tion and fle­xi­bi­lity and their abi­lity to re­act quickly, goods and ser­vices "made in Ger­many" are in de­mand around the world.

There's no doubt about it: mid-si­zed com­pa­nies are the back­bone of the Ger­man eco­nomy. Thanks to these com­pa­nies' flair for pro­duc­tivity, hard work, in­no­va­tion and fle­xi­bi­lity and their abi­lity to re­act quickly, goods and ser­vices "made in Ger­many" are in de­mand around the world. The band­width of these com­pa­nies ran­ges from fast-gro­wing start-ups to busi­nes­ses that have been ow­ned and ope­ra­ted by one fa­mily over many ge­ne­ra­ti­ons, from tra­di­tio­nal crafts­men to high-tech de­ve­lo­pers, and from sole pro­prietors to lis­ted cor­po­ra­ti­ons.

Mid-si­zed com­pa­nies come in all sha­pes and si­zes, and so do the is­sues that they face – is­sues that de­mand a cu­st­omi­zed so­lu­tion. From the selec­tion or change of the form of the com­pany or group of com­pa­nies, to fi­nan­cing is­sues and their im­pact on fi­nan­cial state­ments, to va­rious tax struc­tures: mid-si­zed com­pa­nies need ad­vi­sors who speak their lan­guage and take a ho­listic ap­proach to the chal­len­ges they face.
