The Genoa-based firm of Chartered Accountants CTS BOLLA, QUAGLIA & ASSOCIATES offers consultancy and continuous solutions in tax, financial reporting (both in accordance with Italian GAAP and International Accounting Standards), auditing, company law, bankruptcy procedures and M&A. In 2003, Riccardo Bolla and Stefano Quaglia, chartered accountants (dottori commercialisti) since 1983, joined forces with the aim of pooling their considerable expertise and areas of specialisation to create an aggregation point also for other highly-qualified professionals.

Today, CTS's team of accountants include members of the teaching staff of Italy's prestigious Scuola Superiore di Economia delle Finanze and the post-graduate Master degree in taxation sponsored by the country's leading financial newspaper Il Sole 24 Ore, independent consultants and advisors appointed by tax tribunals and members of arbitration panels as well as regular contributors to specialised reviews.

CTS is committed to understanding the complex requirements of our clients, whether they be large national or foreign companies, listed or not, small and medium-sized enterprises or individuals. We are equipped to provide a value driven service in a variety of situations that range from the application of international accounting standards and related tax impacts to the satisfying of the information and disclosure requirements set by Italian stock market watchdogs (e.g. the Italian securities exchange regulator, Consob), from the provision of support programmes both for Italian clients abroad and foreign clients in Italy to the management of tax litigation and dispute resolution.

Sensitivity, confidentiality and respect are the principles that underpin our work; our wide-ranging competences enable us to deliver tailored, seamless solutions.
